Thanks to all of them who replied. List is long so dificult to
include the names. Great list !!
Consensus was to use "mpstat" to find out the statistics
of each processor.
Also:
A single process will only run across several CPU's if it is
multithreaded. A single threaded process will only be able to use
one CPU. But a Server running several processes will still be able
to use all it's CPU's as the processes will be spread across the
available cpu's and will get distributed depending on the load on
each CPU.
Thanks again
Rajnish Gupta
