Showing system stats with processes

[Jimbo2112]

Hi All,

When I look at the system processes I use ps like most people. Most of the the time I am looking at the unix minutes to see if anything has been running too long or whether it is taking too much of the system time up. I see to remember being shown an alternative unix command to this which actually shows the load being put on the system by each individual process (like in Windows NT process manager). Does anybody know this command?

Cheers

Jimbo

If you are running Solaris 2.8 the "prstat" is what you need but "top" its also very nice.
