I saw a nice tool up at the World of Commodore show, in Toronto this past
weekend, that looks like it would do just such a thing.  Its called 
"System Monitor", from Zen Software (815 East 7th Avenue, Olympia, WA
98501, or on the Well as "zen").  This utility answers questions like "How
much RAM is available", "How hard is the 68000 working (globally)", 
"What is slowing down this program", "What's this task waiting for", "Could
this task use more CPU time if available", "How much of the allocated stack
space is this task actually using", "What program is a given CLI running",
etc.  You could give 'em a call at (206) 352-0766.  I'm not in any way
affiliated with these guys, but even so, they've put together a nice
utility, and its not very expensive (somewhere under $60, not sure
exactly).
