Welcome to one of the greatest disadvantages of the Java programming language. 
IT IS SLOW. One of the reasons, is that the jvm usually starts a couple of 
processes for each application.

Arash Partow says that it really depends on your jvm. But I have tried a 
couple of them (blackdown, Sun, IBM) and they are all like this. The number 
of prosses depends on the specific jvm (java 1.4 should give you the best 
results).

I have heard that the only jvm which only starts one prosses for each 
application, is Apple's jvm. of course I haven't tried it myslef (i don't 
have a Mac).

In order to find YOUR process, you should find it's PID. do that using 'pidof' 
command.
