try this:

ps waux | grep [p]erl5

You should at least know what was the whole command line that launched 
your perl
processes and this should give you a good hint to begin with. There's probably
another way but I am too zombie at the moment from sleep deprivation to think
about it... if something hits me i'll post it ^_^
