NAME¶
xrestop - monitor server resources used by X11 clients
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).

BUGS¶
The X-Resource extension is very new and may not be 100% accurate.
