Also please refresh my memory on how to find the process ID
You can do
and the PID is in the second column of the output. However for this use case I recommend a process manager like htop or btop
I use
ps -aux | grep $EXECUTABLEhtop or any process monitor will tell you.
top for Ubuntu at least will show you the top processes, I think sorted by averaged CPU usage.
