1. Instance data
Taking centOS8 as an example, record the meaning of the parameters in the output result of the top command.
top -bn 1 > top.txt //Here, grab the output result of the top command once

2. Top half: first five lines
first line
top - 23:07:37 up 17:09, 1 user, load average: 1.01, 0.41, 0.16
Current system time, system running time, current login of several users, cpu load of 1 minute, 5 minutes and 10 minutes (generally no more than 1, if more than 5, it is overloaded)
Second line
Tasks: 256 total, 1 running, 253 sleeping, 2 stopped, 0 zombie
Current processes, running processes, sleep processes, stopped processes, zombie processes
Third line
%Cpu(s): 0.0 us, 7.1 sy, 0.0 ni, 92.9 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st
cpu occupied by 0.0 us: user process
7.1 sy: cpu occupied by system kernel
0.0 ni: cpu occupied by processes with changed priority in user process space
92.9 id: idle cpu percentage
0.0 wa: percentage of cpu waiting for input / output
0.0 hi: percentage of hardware cpu interrupt usage
0.0 si: percentage of software cpu interrupt usage
0.0 st: virtual machine occupancy percentage
Fourth line
MiB Mem : 797.1 total, 72.8 free, 492.6 used, 231.7 buff/cache
797.1 total: total physical memory unit: MiB
72.8 free: total free memory
492.6 used: total physical memory used
231.7 buff/cache: the amount of memory used as kernel cache
The fifth line
MiB Swap: 2048.0 total, 1475.2 free, 572.8 used. 167.9 avail Mem
2048.0 total: total exchange area
1475.2 free: total free switching area
572.8 used: total number of exchange areas used
167.9 available MEM: the total number of swap buffers
The data in the memory is moved to the swap area and then sent to the memory space. The used swap area has not been overwritten, and its space size is the size of the swap area where these data already exist in the memory. When the corresponding memory is swapped out again, there is no need to write to the swap area
Free size of memory space?
total free=free+buff/cache+avail Mem
3. Second half: details of each process
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
PID: process id
USER: process owner name
PR: priority, priority of program execution
NI: NICE value, negative high priority
VIRT: total amount of virtual memory used
RES: the size of physical memory used by the process and not swapped out
SHR: shared memory size
S: Process state (- R running, - s sleep, - T trace / stop, - Z zombie, - D non interruptible sleep state)
%CPU: percentage of CPU time consumed since the last update
%MEM: percentage of physical memory used by the process
TIME +: total CPU TIME used by the process
COMMAND: COMMAND name / COMMAND line
