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.
