When you run top, you can see the amount of CPU utilization a process is using. I thought ps -ef would give you the same information, I was wrong...

I wrote a script that will Email me when certain processes us more then 100% of the CPU. This always indicates that it is in a loop and starts eating up all the CPUs on the server. Does anyone know a line command I can run to give me this info?
