# memtop

memtop is command line utility to help user to find out what applications uses

biggest portions of the memory (RAM+swap), sorted in decreasing order. It lists

private/writeable memory only, that is without shared memory. Typical use is

when you need to reduce the overall RAM consumption or when you encounter

performance problems.

Memtop gets data from `/proc/` virtual filesystem.
