One, you can't
Two, it doesn't matter much.

"sys" merely correlates to time spent executing
system-calls (i.e. kernal calls), whereas "user"
correlates to the time spent executing code outside
of the kernel.


As far as lsof... try this:

ps -ef | grep lsof

once you get the PID of the lsof process(es), you
can grep for them:

ps -ef | grep _PID_of_lsof_goes_here
