toprs

Cross platform alternative top with a focus on analysing memory usage. In addition to each process having only their memory usage, it also has the sum of all child process memory usage.

running

Install via $ cargo install toprs
Run toprs for console or toprs -g for gui

If you want to always run as Gui mode, add the following to your config file located - ~/.config/toprs/config.toml - c:\Users\Name\.config\toprs\config.toml - /etc/toprs/config.toml

Tui mode

Operating modes

Run toprs with the following flags - Console (TUI) mode [-t] - GUI mode [-g]
- Output flamegraph to SVG [-s ] - Output memory usage to terminal [-o]

Gui

Processes are listed like in TUI mode, but there is also a memory analysis section which analyses the memory usage in two modes: Sunburst and Flamegraph. Sunburst mode allows you to click on a process to drill down. You can increase or decrease the max depth to your preference. Both Sunburst and Flamegraph indicate top 5 (own memory) processes in Red, and the rest in fading yellow, depending on amount. Flamegraph blue portion is child memory, and red/yellow is its own memory

Tested on

FAQ

• What memory is it using?
  • In windows this is the "working set"
  • In Linux this is the "resident" memory i.e. used physical memory

Thanks

Shoutout to the following projects that made this possible: - rust Sysinfo lib - GUI mode uses Dioxus to manage window and contents - TUI mode uses tuirs - Plotly for chart
