I don't know the thing on SunOS, but on Linux you will find these processes (which use swap) closed in [] in the output of "ps" command. example:
ps afx

  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
    1 ?        S      0:04 init [5]
    2 ?        SW     0:00 [keventd]
    3 ?        SWN    0:00 [ksoftirqd_CPU0]
    4 ?        SW     0:34 [kswapd]
    5 ?        SW     0:00 [bdflush]
    6 ?        SW     0:05 [kupdated]
    7 ?        SW     0:00 [kinoded]
    9 ?        SW     0:00 [mdrecoveryd]
  689 ?        SW     0:00 [eth0]
  738 ?        S      0:00 /sbin/syslogd
  741 ?        SW     0:00 /sbin/klogd -c 1 -2
  801 ?        SW     0:00 [khubd]
  918 ?        SW     0:00 /sbin/resmgrd
  943 ?        SW     0:00 [portmap]
