what's that?

Post by b-real »

Hi,

My admin's sent me that:

Code: Select all

3655  root      16   0  2384 2380  1396 R     3,6  0,2   0:00   3 split-logfile
Could you explain me what is it? That's a peace of long log (?) but how should it read it? What the numbers mean?

Its a snippet from top, a *ix utility explaining process usage.

Code: Select all

PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
Honestly, dunno why they'd send it.. nothing sticking out as unusual to my eye.. cpu and mem use are low, nice is neutral, etc. Looks fine.

I could be reading this wrong but isn't that process using 2+ MBs? That would usually perk a hosts interest.
