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).

SEE ALSO

   X(7), top(1).

BUGS

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