I guess you would need a way to sample a set of processes that were
executing what you considered activity; and ignore the ones that are
not. With some data, e.g assuming they block on semaphore when idle,
or terminate when idle, perhaps you can make a decision.  I haven't
looked, but was imagining some of the profiler framework might help
because I thought it did process sampling.

cheers,
Mike
