Default
Use top and ps commands.

Code:
top
Display the process utilizing the most cpu and quits to sh:
Code:
top -b 1
Display CPU Utilization:
Code:
sar -u
And use ps to display processes with the highest CPU utilization
Code:
ps -eo pid,pcpu,args | sort +1n
Read man pages of each of the above commands to get more details and supported options.
