Dramatically reduce the CPU usage of 'top'
Authored by: outofcontrol on Feb 20, '04 10:19:08PM

If you have bash you do as above, but I prefer to put a different name as Rob suggested:

alias ttop='top -ocpu -R -F -s 2 -n30'

Keeping in the habit of using a slightly different name can save you some frustration when not on your own machine.

Don't forget to run:

source ~/.bashrc

afterwards to allow you to use your new alias.
