Also please refresh my memory on how to find the process ID

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago

You can do

ps aux | grep -i 

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 $EXECUTABLE

htop 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.
