You can also run a lot of top programs, each for one user (type 'u' while in top).

nb. is their a way to get fair 'equal time / proc percentage per user' queueing of the CPU(s).

i.e. not limiting the number of processes/user but limiting the total CPU 'power' in use by a given user, something like the CBQ network schedulers... perhaps with some classes (like root) more priveledged etc... or is this something for 2.7?

Cannot be sure - but try to google in direction of "vserver linux". Digging into the lkml archives on vserver can give you some pointers. At least some posters were hinting that vserver has capability to
limit CPU usage of given task.
