Those were not the names of running processes; they were the contents of
the /proc filesystem, including (among other things) the process ids of
the running processes. One of the numbers in that list may have
represented a running esd.

You can get useful information about the running processes, including
their names, using the "ps" command. Type "man ps" for more information,
or "ps ax | grep esd" to look for a running esd (ignore any lines with
"grep" in them).

Cheers
Philip
