Seeing mem/cpu usage of separate programs?

Seeing mem/cpu usage of separate programs?

Post by gaikokujin_kyofu.. » Fri, 20 Apr 2001 23:16:16



Hi, I was busy becoming paranoid about my memory usage and it occurred to me
that I am not sure how to see what applications are using how much of my
memory and CPU.  I cant imagine that there wouldnt be some sort of standard
program that can show this but I dont know what it would be (Using apropos
with keywords memory and cpu didnt turn up anything obvious). Any help
or perhaps a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

-Gaiko

Gaiko,

man ps

For example,

ps -eo cmd,%mem
