I ran 2000 "sleep 60" jobs on teraport and monitored tp-osg.  From
here process 22395 is the child of the main java process
(bootstrap.jar) and is loading the CPU.

I have coasters.log, worker-*log, swift logs, gram logs in
~aespinosa/workflows/activelog/run06.  This refers to a different run.
 PID 15206 is the child java process of bootstrap.jar in here.
