systat

From NetBSD Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

The systat(1) command displays various system statistics in a screen oriented fashion using the curses screen display library, curses(3).

While systat is running the screen is usually divided into two windows (an exception is the vmstat display which uses the entire screen). The upper window depicts the current system load average. The information displayed in the lower window may vary, depending on user commands. The last line on the screen is reserved for user input and error messages.

By default systat displays the processes getting the largest percentage of the processor in the lower window. Other displays show more detailed process information, swap space usage, disk usage statistics (à la df), disk I/O statistics (à la iostat), virtual memory statistics (à la vmstat), network "mbuf" utilization, and network connections (à la netstat).
