If a delay and count are not specified, a snapshot of the current page fault activity is displayed. If a delay in seconds is specified, faultstat will periodically show any per-process page fault changes. This will run indefinitely until a SIGINT is caught. Specifying count will repeat the periodic output count number of times. .SH OPTIONS faultstat options are as follow: .TP .B \-a show page fault size changes with up arrow \[u2191] when they increment .TP .B \-c get command information from processes comm field .TP .B \-d strip directory basename off command information .TP .B \-h show help .TP .B \-l show long (full) command information .TP .B \-p proclist specify a comma separated list of processes to monitor; the process list may contain one or more PIDs or process names .TP .B \-s show short command information .TP .B \-t top mode, show top page faulting processes by current page fault changes .TP .B \-T top mode, show top page faulting processes by total page faults .PP Hot keys in top mode: .TS lB lBw(\n[SZ]n) l l.
