Help for hogs

I was using hogs to get a rough idea of cpu loading and I’m confused,
nothing new there, by the output.

What are the columns displaying?
What is MSEC referenced to?
What percentage is displayed under the PIDS and SYSTEM percentages?

How can several processes add up to more than 100% in either column? Here is
some sample output.

1 1736 31% 57%
[deleted procs with 1 msec and 0 %]
77839 247 4% 8%
[deleted procs with 1 msec and 0 %]
1277987 800 14% 26%
1323044 3 0% 0%
1368101 32 0% 1%
1413158 2041 36% 68%
1458215 350 6% 11%
1503272 1 0% 0%
1548329 1 0% 0%
1593386 23 0% 0%
1638443 9 0% 0%
1753132 1 0% 0%
1687597 246 4% 8%
1806382 28 0% 0%

Thanks,

I’m glad someone finally asked this. It’s been on my to-do list to ask this
same question for some time now.

The answer is, use spin instead of hogs :wink:

Bravo, Igor! What a wonderful program!

It seems to be fairly obvious how to use the program, but before I make too
many decisions, I’d like to be sure I’m interpreting the results correctly.
Is there any detailed documentation about the output?

Regards,
David Kuechenmeister
