Operating Systems Linux SuSE How to check Memory Utilization by each process Post 302375978 by toto on Monday 30th of November 2009 09:22:31 AM

If you use top in batch mode you get a list of all processes:
top -b -n 1 > list_of_processes

Before that, if you want the output sorted by memory usage you can do the following:
top
M (this sorts the output on the screen by memory usage)
W (this writes the sort settings to a configuration file ~/.toprc; this settings are used when you then start top in batch mode as described above)

NAME
xrestop - monitor server resources used by X11 clients SYNOPSIS
xrestop -help xrestop [ -display display ] [ --batch ] [ --delay-time seconds ] DESCRIPTION
Xrestop uses the X-Resource extension to provide 'top'-like statistics of each connected X11 client's server-side resource usage. It is intended as a developer tool to aid more efficient server resource usage and debug server-side resource leakage. OPTIONS
--help Show usage. --display, -d <display> Specify X11 display to monitor. --delay-time, -dt <seconds> Time in seconds between taking samples. Default is 2 seconds. --batch, -b Run in batch mode. Slightly more detailed infomation is streamed to stdout rather than the usual curses interface. This mode is intended for debugging a single client with something like xrestop -b | grep -A 15 appname --max-samples, -m <count> Specify number of times to gather and display results. Default is continuous, which can be set with 0 (zero). SEE ALSO
X(7), top(1). BUGS
The X-Resource extension is very new and may not be 100% accurate. AUTHOR
