That's consistent with the behavior of a threaded program. I notice
you only seem to have one sshd, bash, and ps process, which makes
sense. Here I regularly have a half-dozen almost-identical 'java'
processes, for example, when I'm running Java programs, since the Sun
JVM uses threads fairly freely.
