Full Discussion: Need a list of top 10 CPU using processes (also top 10 memory hogs, separately)
Operating Systems AIX Need a list of top 10 CPU using processes (also top 10 memory hogs, separately) Post 302350039 by zxmaus on Wednesday 2nd of September 2009 03:32:06 PM

Hi,

for AIX I am using:

Displaying top CPU_consuming processes

Code:
ps aux | head -1; ps aux | sort -rn +2 | head -10

Displaying top 10 memory-consuming processes

Code:
ps aux | head -1; ps aux | sort -rn +3 | head

Displaying the process in order of real memory use

Code:
ps vx | head -1; ps vx | grep -v PID | sort -rn +6 | head -10

Displaying process in order of nice value

Code:
ps -eakl | sort -n +7

Displaying the process in order of I/O

Code:
ps vx | head -1; ps vx | grep -v PID | sort -rn +4 | head -10

Kind regards
zxmaus

passenger-memory-stats

passenger-memory-stats(8)				      Administration Commands					 passenger-memory-stats(8)

NAME

       passenger-memory-stats - reports a snapshot of the Apache and Phusion Passenger memory statistcs

SYNOPSIS

       passenger-memory-stats

DESCRIPTION

       passenger-memory-stats allows you to easily analyze the real memory usage of Phusion Passenger and Apache.

       Process	inspection  tools  such  as ps and top are useful, but they rarely show the correct memory usage. The real memory usage is usually
       lower than what ps and top report.

       There are many technical reasons why this is so, but an explanation is beyond the scope of this page. We refer  the  interested	reader	to
       operating systems literature about virtual memory and copy-on-write.

       When you run this tool the Private or private dirty RSS field shows the real memory usage of processes.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       HTTPD  The full filename to the Apache executable. By default, Passenger will attempt to autodetect the Apache executable. If autodetection
	      fails for whatever reason, then Apache processes will not be shown in the memory statistics. In that case, you may manually  specify
	      the location to the Apache executable using this environment variable.
