there is a program called "activity monitor" which is located in applications>utilities (or find it via spotlight)
the widget "istat pro" is also extremely handy.
If your not into Widgets, such as myself, iStat Pro also has a menubar setup.

Yeah, Activity Monitor is the way to go, and select "All Processes".
If you're a bit nerdy, you can fire up teh Terminal and type "top"
