wmforkplop - Monitors forking activity and displays top CPU
consuming processes.
wmforkplop is a program that monitors the forking activity
of the kernel and displays a list of the most CPU-consuming processes.
Although primarily aimed at Windowmaker, it will run on any window manager,
either as a dockapp or as a standard X11 application.
- -h, --help
- print this.
- -v, --verbose
- increase verbosity
- -V, --version
- print version
--fontpath path add a new directory to the font search
directory list
- default: --fontpath=/usr/share/fonts/truetype (and
subdirectories)
- --fontpath=/usr/share/fonts/ttf
- (and subdirectories)
- --fontpath=$HOME/.fonts
- (and subdirectories)
- --font
- fontname/size Set the 'small font' name/size in pixel (default:
--smallfont=Vera/6 The font name are case-sensitive, and
must correspound to the name of a .ttf file which can be found in one of
the fontpaths By default, wmforkplop tries to load the following
fonts:
- * Vera/6, DejaVuSansMono/6, Andale_Mono/6, Verdana/6, Trebuchet_MS/7
-c n, --colormap=n
- select colormap number n (0 <= n <= 5)
-g[=WxH+x+y],
--geometry[=WxH+x+y]
- start in window (i.e. undocked) mode with specified geometry (i.e
-g 96x32 or -g 64x64+0+0)
--32, --48, --56
- start in a reduced dockapp, for people whose dock is too small too contain
64x64 dockapps
--no-top
- disable the wmtop feature, you will only see the fork animation.
--no-fork
- disable the fork animation, you will only see the list of top
processes.
--threshold=n
- minimum CPU consumption (%) of a process listed in the top-list (default
3%)
-u n, --proc-update-delay=n
- set the delay between two reads of /proc, the default is 150
(milliseconds). Setting a small value gives accurate results, but consumes
more CPU as reading /proc is quite expensive.
See /usr/share/doc/wmforkplop/README.gz for more details.
