It may depend on which (X11) GUI you have installed: with kde, run
ksysguard;
with Gnome, run gnome-system-monitor; then in either of these, look at
the
"Processes" tab. You may have to run the gvim versions one-by-one in
order to
be able to distinguish them -- unless you give the executables (or the
links
pointing to them) different names such as gvim-nextaw, gvim-motif,
gvim-gtk, etc.

Are there any general tools that will do this? I don't use KDE or Gnome.

Which window manager(s) do you have installed? There may or may not be a
similar tool (showing the various running processes with their CPU and memory
use) in the same package. If there isn't, you may try to use "top", a console
tool, but it is less precise (IIUC, it shows memory use as %, not as KBytes)
and you would have to sort its output to make sure that your Vim processes are
not pushed off the bottom of the display (I guess sorting either A to Z or Z
to A by command name might do it). (Once it's running, hit h for help. Most
commands are single-letter and case-sensitive.)
Best regards,
Tony.
