I have tried them on the amd64 architecture on FreeBSD -current and FreeBSD 7.0 and on the i386 architecture on FreeBSD 7.0. The big new features are a line upper part with kernel statistics (context-switches, traps, interrupts, faults etc) and the FLG table (if you window is big enough) Some features specific to FreeBSD (dual display (press m)), threaded processes, and jails have been ported to 3.8b1. The biggest fix (AFAICT) is the TIME and CPU table for threaded processes, which are now calculated properly. The new code can be found on http://www.mavetju.org/~edwin/freebsd-top-3.8b1-A.tar.gz Go to 3.8b1/usr.sbin/top and run "make" there to produce the binary, then run it via "./top". Please report any issues with it (compile time, run time) and a way to reproduce it (if possible). Thanks for your help! Edwin -- Edwin Groothuis edwin@freebsd.org http://www.mavetju.org
