you could easily test this theory by doing repeated "ps -ef | sort -n
+1 | tail " and looking at the jumps the pids make (assuming they
haven't wrapped around yet, which in itself - if it happens early
after boot - is probably a good indication that your theory is good).
You can also a dtrace one liner to watch new processes being created:
dtrace -n 'proc:::exec-success { trace(curpsinfo->pr_psargs); }'
