Why is gzip so high anf the mailman script if mailman is due to someone sending out a mailing list how do you find out which user it belongs to?

Top Process %CPU 76.3 gzip
Top Process %CPU 69.3 gzip
Top Process %CPU 64.8 gzip
mysql 1.60 20.45 0.0
Top Process %CPU 34.0 [mysqld]
Top Process %CPU 20.0 [mysqld ]
Top Process %CPU 16.0 [mysqld]
mailman 1.50 0.15 0.0
Top Process %CPU 78.6 /usr/bin/python -S /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/cron/qrunner
Top Process %CPU 41.0 /usr/bin/python -S /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/cron/qrunner
Top Process %CPU 36.5 /usr/bin/python -S /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/cron/qrunner

Cant you run 'ps aux' in console to find out. I'm not really sure, just a guess.

gzip - do you run backups? This is the likely cause.
mailman - mailman will tend to use a large amount of processor time when it does the qrunner process. Easiest way to see who's sending out a list is to tail the exim_mainlog, but remember that the top CPU usage doesn't necessarily reflect what's going on with the system right that second. It just shows what the top uses have been. Looking at the process list on the console or the current running processes via WHM will show you immediately running processes.

I found the exim_mainlog but would you tell a rookie how to "tail" it?
