Distribution the load is up to the application. This is achieved by
adding queues, or by properly configuring specific element to use more
threads (notably videoconvert in recent GStreamer releases, but also
some decoders and encoder have a threads/max-threads,n-threads
properties).

Any system monitor will do. Notably "top" can monitor that.
