NAME
xrestop - monitor server resources used by X11 clients
SYNOPSIS
xrestop --help
xrestop [ --display display ] [ --batch ] [ --delay-time seconds ] [ --max-samples count ]
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, -h
-
Show usage and exit.
- --version, -V
-
Print version and exit.
- --display, -d <display>
-
Specify X11 display to monitor.
- --delay-time, -t <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).

BUGS
The X-Resource extension may not be 100% accurate.
