@Takkat When I first joined the site I noticed programming questions were off-topic and had to go to Stack Overflow. However we see bash, process ID (PID), sed, sort, grep, awk and uniq questions here all the time. So unless it's the issue of discovering what programs are running when, I don't think it's off-topic based on programming. For that it would be specific questions about C code or something similar I think.

| Sep 6, 2018 at 22:34 | comment | added | WinEunuuchs2Unix | @terdon I added the desired output. The gist of it capturing Process ID's running over a period of 6 to 10 seconds. Sampling 10 to 25 times per second. Then stripping out all those processes that were running the whole time. Leaving you with a short list of suspects. | |

Also, the 'TL;DR' seems to be the exact opposite: it is much longer than the actual question and not a summary. Frankly, after reading your question three times, I still don't understand what you are asking for. | |
| Sep 6, 2018 at 9:22 | comment | added | Mark Kirby | I agree, it looks like a programming question but we do support the shell and interacting with it, so, as your question is about bash, it is on topic. See: meta.askubuntu.com/questions/13807/… | |
