"top" shows the the httpd process that are high CPU users at any given moment, but the trouble is that in order to identify individual processes that are using a lot of CPU, you have to keep track of visually of several process IDs that are at the top of the list, since the processes at the top keep shifting around. You'd have to have a very good eye to spot all the PID numbers that stayed at or near the top of the list (since they keep changing relative positions) and filter out all the ones that disappear after a second or two. Same problem if you install the server-status module and keep reloading /server-status/ .
Surely it must be quite common for people to want to identify the requests that are using a lot of CPU over time, so there must be some way to do this?
