top \- show processes sorted by CPU usage
.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B top
+\fBtop\fP [\fB\-s\fIdelay\fP] [\fB\-B\fP]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Top displays a list of all running processes, once every update interval
(currently 5 seconds). It is sorted by the CPU usage of the processes in
the last interval. The first display is the CPU usage of processes since
the boot time.

At the top of the screen, top shows the current system load averages in
the last 1-minute, 5-minute and 15-minute intervals. Then, over the
last top interval it displays: the number of alive, active, and sleeping
processes; memory free; and CPU usage. CPU usage is split into
-user, kernel, system and idle time. Kernel time is time spent by kernel tasks,
-that is tasks that run in kernel mode in kernel address space. System
-time are system user processes, such as drivers and servers. User
-time is all other CPU time.

Then it displays all the alive processes sorted by CPU usage in the last
