Now, as dearly as I love awk, ps -C java --no-heading | wc -l
You are counting processes, the original is counting threads.
$ ps -C java -o thcount | awk ' { total += $1 } END { print total } ' 29
$ ps -C java --no-heading | wc -l 1
Oh, I take that back - I see what's going on, a and yeah, you're right.
How about: ps H -C java |wc -l
No joy. On one of our servers, if I do that, I show three processes, but if I use the thread count flag, I get THCNT 63 59 62 and the original poster wanted the total threadcount.
