No, java processes only. And tomcat is the only java-using application
running on these servers.

If you want to discover where you tomcat is eating all it's CPU cycle, i

Any hints on how to associate a thread with an OS PID? Or any other way of
identifying what thread is the culprit? I have played with the kill -3
feature, but didn't get very far investigating the output. =(

Thanks!
