Can processing Query the cpu load of the system? or the memory being used?
If it does, How would I go about doing that? Thanks.

As expected, Java can't do that (CPU load) natively: it is highly depending on the underlying system.
Now, with some appropriate keywords in my search Smiley I found this page: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javaqa/2002-11/01-qa-1108-cpu.html
I also found a French article (but with usable code) telling that Sun started to implement this in Java 6: http://www.touilleur-express.fr/2008/05/23/comment-trouver-la-charge-cpu-de-la-machine-en-java/
Apparently, it doesn't work in Windows (in May 2008 at least).

You can find more info on memory usage, the second article points to MXBean.
