NAME

       xsysinfo - Display Linux kernel parameters in graphical form

SYNOPSIS

       xsysinfo   [-help]  [-update  n]  [-[no]title]  [-[no]labels]  [-[no]loadavg]  [-[no]load]
       [-[no]mem] [-[no]swap] [-[no]smp]

DESCRIPTION

       Xsysinfo is an X application to display some Linux kernel parameters in graphical form. It
       is like a mix of top, free and xload with the difference that the values are shown in form
       of a horizontal bar. The displayed values are: CPU load average, CPU load, memory and swap
       sizes (details see below).

DISPLAY

       Xsysinfo display the following values:

       CPU load average
              CPU  load average between 0.000-8.000. The gauge's bar is subdivided into segments,
              where one segment represents a  load  value  of  1.0.  The  bar's  full  length  is
              automatically scaled, depending on the displayed value.

       CPU load
              percentage  CPU load time to CPU idle time subdivided in three segments: user load,
              system load and nice load. On an SMP system the -smp  option  replaces  the  single
              total load meter with a separate meter for each processor.

       Memory The  memory gauge's bar is subdivided into two segments with the amount of physical
              memory, which is used by processes on the left and physical  memory  used  for  the
              page  and  buffer cache on the right. The length of the whole bar, which is the sum
              of these two values, shows the amount of physical  memory  currently  used  by  the
              system.

       Swap   The percentage of swap space used by the system to total amount of swap space.
