I don't know about looking up individual "threads" but if you don't have glance, you can run top and locate the process id <pid> of whatever is taking your cpu time:
(top output)
CPU TTY PID USERNAME PRI NI SIZE RES STATE TIME %WCPU %CPU COMMAND
2 ? 8076 www 152 20 117M 63900K run 0:07 0.55 0.55 httpd
ps -ef |grep <pid> - which should give you an output.
root 8076 1975 0 Jan 13 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/<process name>
You can then run ps -ef |grep <ppid> <--- parent process id
That should tell you all of the processes involved with the one item taking your cpu.
