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 information 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).
