Command for finding process using too much CPU

Command for finding process using too much CPU   Try doing this : top - b - n1 - c   And if you want the process that takes the most %CPU times : top - b - n1 - c | awk '/PID *USER/{print;getline;print}' or top - b - n1 - c | grep - A 2 '^$'       Or using a few other utils you could do: ps aux | sort - rk 3 , 3 | head - n 5   Change the value of head to get the number of processes you want to see.
