Surely just by using the running program one would be able to tell.

Anyway you could try;
'top' will show what it is doing, memory useage etc.
'strace -p PID' will show system calls etc.
'gdb -c PID'
You make no mention of what sort of program it is, if the problem program
has anything to do with networking, then possably a slow network "might"
make it "seem" that the program is responding eraticly, ie, its waiting for
a domain lookup responce from a slow network.
