Overview
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, -h -
Show usage and exit.
-
--version, -V -
Print version and exit.
-
--display, -d <display> -
Specify X11 display to monitor.
-
--delay-time, -t <seconds> -
Time in seconds between taking samples. Default is 2 seconds.
-
--batch, -b -
Run in batch mode. Slightly more detailed information 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).
