You may be interested in looking at 'virt-top', which is an example of
tracking CPU usage on top of libvirt APIs, for how best to do things.  I
don't specifically know of a Java client that does the same, but it
should be fairly straightforward to translate the API calls used by
virt-top into the Java bindings for libvirt.
