Due to differences in (mainly) measuring and accumulating CPU times, the two top programs end up serving different purposes: the NetBSD top is a system administration tool, while the MINIX3 top (now mtop) is a performance debugging tool. Therefore, we keep both. The newly imported BSD top has a few MINIX3-specific changes. CPU statistics separate system time from kernel time, rather than kernel time from time spent on handling interrupts. Memory statistics show numbers that are currently relevant for MINIX3. Swap statistics are disabled entirely. All of these changes effectively bring it closer to how mtop already worked as well. Change-Id: I9611917cb03e164ddf012c5def6da0e7fede826d

.SH "HPUX 10 INFORMATION"
|
|
The process information layout has changed slightly since previous
|
|
versions. The CPU percentage column reports weighted cpu as
|
|
calculated directly by the kernel. The WCPU column is no longer
|
|
present in the output and a TTY column has been added to indicate
|
|
the name of the process's controlling terminal.
|
|
The definition of an
|
|
idle process has been relaxed to include those processes that have only
|
|
just gone to sleep.
|
|
|
|
This version of top does not display a per-cpu breakdown of processor
|
|
state. Perhaps a later version will add this sophistication across
|
|
all platforms.

The HP/UX 10 port has greatly benefitted from the diligent efforts

of the following individuals: John Haxby <john_haxby@hp.com>,

Rich Holland <holland@synopsys.com>, and <kevin@mcl.ucsb.edu>.
