Hi Rory,

The ps command lets you define an output format.
The 'time' in it is the CPU time used by the process.
More interrestingly, there is 'etime' and 'etimes' formats, which help you
with what you want to do.


ps -o etimes `pgrep apache2 -u root`
Will give you the apache2 root process "age" (though the status mod allows
you to do the same, concerning apache...).

No time to go further into details, you may build a probe to track this.
