It's by default installed on KNOPPIX, which is how I first found out<br>
about it.<br>

That was interesting on my client system. I almost feel like I went<br>
on a journey :-).<br>
<br>
I've been addicted to top since I first found out about it on NetBSD<br>
in 1996 or so. It's so interesting. I once submitted a top output as<br>
a screenshot for my last LUG, but with only it and bash and kernel<br>
threads running on 256 GB of RAM, which was a lot at the time. Some<br>
other people were impressed and voted for it, but I did not win =).<br>
<br>
I have noticed that top on Linux uses /proc and uses several times as<br>
much CPU as BSD's sysctl interface, but I guess that's a compromise on<br>
Linux that I am willing to make.<br>
<br>
I'll have to give htop another try since so many people are enthusiastic<br>
for it. :) I have never really liked the system monitors that came<br>
with OS X, GNOME, KDE, etc., although gtop or gprocess manager, or<br>
something, a GTK 1.x top redo was good. I don't know why GNOME System<br>
Monitor and Ksysguard are so slow, but it's a turn off.<br>
<br>
I used to have the task manager open on Windows all the time, that's<br>
probably their nicest program.<br>
