Hello,
When you run top you could press c and you would be able to see the full command which would give you more information about the process.
Another thing that you could do is run:
ps aux | grep java
This should also give you more information.
If you think that you don’t need that process, you could stop it by running:
sudo kill 31694
If it does not stop, you could try running the kill command with a SIGKILL:
sudo kill -9 31694
Regards, Bobby
