Comparison between 'htop' and 'top'
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* In 'htop' you can scroll the list vertically and horizontally
|
||
|
|
to see all processes and full command lines.
|
||
|
|
* In 'top' you are subject to a delay for each unassigned
|
||
|
|
key you press (especially annoying when multi-key escape
|
||
|
|
sequences are triggered by accident).
|
||
|
|
* 'htop' starts faster ('top' seems to collect data for a while
|
||
|
|
before displaying anything).
|
||
|
|
* In 'htop' you don't need to type the process number to
|
||
|
|
kill a process, in 'top' you do.
|
||
|
|
* In 'htop' you don't need to type the process number or
|
||
|
|
the priority value to renice a process, in 'top' you do.
|
||
|
|
* In 'htop' you can kill multiple processes at once.
|
||
|
|
* 'top' is older, hence, more tested.
