SYNOPSIS
xrestop -help
xrestop [ -display display ] [ --batch ] [ --delay-time seconds ]
DESCRIPTION
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 | Show usage. |
--display, -d <display> | |
Specify X11 display to monitor. | |
--delay-time, -dt <seconds> | |
Time in seconds between taking samples. Default is 2 seconds. | |
--batch, -b | |
Run in batch mode. Slightly more detailed infomation 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). |

BUGS
The X-Resource extension is very new and may not be 100% accurate.
