NAME
topsysproc - top syscalls by process name. Uses DTrace. SYNOPSIS
topsysproc [-Cs] [interval [count]] DESCRIPTION

There may be several PIDs with the same process name. DOCUMENTATION
See the DTraceToolkit for further documentation under the Docs directory. The DTraceToolkit docs may include full worked examples with ver- bose descriptions explaining the output. EXIT
