I use C-A-D, but don't know about the dual-cpu angle, or the degree of detail
you are looking for. C-A-D offers at least as much detail as PC, though. Stardock
dropped OS/2 support for PC quite some time ago, there were problems with the
program, and I don't think it works with later fixpacks. C-A-D 2.5.2 was supposedly
certified up through FP-14, but I haven't tried using it yet with any of the later kernels.

Of the OS/2 process killers, it may be the only one still technically on the market.
It has been doing the job for me, whereas PC had become a real pain in the rear.
I have not found the developer to be responsive to questions, however. To stop some
annoying pop-up screens, I had to stumble across the right settings on my own.
