There's also ps auxfw, but I like pstree on RedHat:
...
|-python---python---python---4*[python]
|-rhnsd
|-safe_mysqld---mysqld---mysqld---mysqld
...
The only way I know to distinquish threads from ordinary children is to
look at the memory profile. For threads, they will always be exactly the
same, because they share the same memory map.
