How to find out which python script is using resources?
- by Jesse the Wind Wanderer
Can someone tell me how to find out which python script is using lots of system resources?
I can see with the 'top' command that a process called "python" is always near the top of the list.

Can someone tell me how to find this specific python script's name?
I could go through the arduous process of disabling startup apps/processes until I finally found the one that starts this python process but there must be a better way of determining what exactly this python process is, yes?
Doing a ps -AH doesn't yield anything useful.
ps -AH
