Top should have a column marked 'C':

  PID USERNAME      PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE  C   TIME   WCPU    CPU
COMMAND
39138 root           96    0 16420K 15164K select 1   0:23  2.69%  2.69%
XFree8

This shows what CPU the process is running on.

Another sign to tell is sysctl hw.ncpu, or sysctl kern.smp.cpus
