NAME

6       xrestop - monitor server resources used by X11 clients

SYNOPSIS

9       xrestop -help
10       xrestop [ -display display ] [ --batch ] [ --delay-time seconds ]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Xrestop  uses the X-Resource extension to provide 'top'-like statistics
14       of each connected X11  client's  server-side  resource  usage.   It  is
15       intended  as  a  developer  tool  to aid more efficient server resource
16       usage and debug server-side resource leakage.

OPTIONS

19       --help Show usage.
20
21       --display, -d <display>
22              Specify X11 display to monitor.
23
24       --delay-time, -dt <seconds>
25              Time in seconds between taking samples. Default is 2 seconds.
26
27       --batch, -b
28              Run in batch mode. Slightly more detailed infomation is streamed
29              to  stdout  rather than the usual curses interface. This mode is
30              intended for debugging a single client with something like
31                xrestop -b | grep -A 14 appname
32
33       --max-samples, -m <count>
34              Specify number of times to gather and display results.   Default
35              is continuous, which can be set with 0 (zero).
