process kill top
Sometimes programs will lock up in the background and cause high CPU usage. Is there any way I can programmatically ascertain which process is causing the highest CPU load at the moment and kill it?

cpu top crash

The program I am running is able to specify the of thread which can be used. I specified I would like to use 15 thread. The computer server I am using has about 20+ processor (Intel Xeon CPU with 6 core). From top c, I saw that from running my program I am using %CPU

linux netbeans kill top
I have a program that crashed, its GUI is frozen, and I would like to kill it.However there is no trace of it among the current processes.

tomcat cpu load top
When I run TOP on a remote server, I see a very small system utilization (3.8%us). However, for the actual process I am seeing 29.6% of the CPU. Since this server has 8 CPU cores, is the %CPU the utilization of only 1 CPU, while the us up top is over the 8 CPUs?When I divide 29.6 by 8, I get 3.7 which looks to validate my guess. So questions:The low utilization I am seeing is actually over 8 CPUs while the %CPU is for the CPU the process is using? What happens for processes that are utilizing m

Never mind the swapping

top centos6.2
I have a machine running a very small java listener and no body is using this machine but load is like staying between 0.9 to 0.6 for nearly sometime? IS it any indication here? What could be causing to go high when there is very little activity on the server? I saw a lot of events/3,hald-addon-stor,init,kthreadd, miniserv.pl etc running what are there?top – 21:43:46 up 1 day, 7:50, 1 user, load average: 0.92, 0.40, 0.20 Tasks: 251 total, 1 running, 249 sleeping, 0 stopped, 1 zombie Cpu

bug-reporting cpu-load memory-usage kill top
I am running mCruiseOn Server, which is a java based server side application (sockets, multiple threads, memcached, mysql) on a Micro EC2. It has been crashing often. I suspect memory usage may have killed it. How to you find out which program is using too much memoryI read through this and it was very useful. Now I need to know if my application crashed due to memory shortage. Any system log that has that information ?
