| 1 | .SH "MULTIMAX DIFFERENCES" |
|---|
| 2 | The umax operating system does not assign process ids sequentially, so |
|---|
| 3 | there is no "last pid" display. Process state names are: run, exec, |
|---|
| 4 | wait, event, start, stop. Information about physical memory is |
|---|
| 5 | displayed on the memory status line, but information about virtual |
|---|
| 6 | memory is not available. WCPU is not displayed. Percent CPU is |
|---|
| 7 | calculated ove the entire life of the process and is a measure of the |
|---|
| 8 | percentage of the process's life time spent running. This is very |
|---|
| 9 | different from the typical Unix measure of percent cpu, but is the |
|---|
| 10 | best that can be done with the information available. Also, no |
|---|
| 11 | attempt is made to determine if a process is currently "idle", thus |
|---|
| 12 | the -I flag is assumed to always be true (idle processes are displayed). |
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 | The multimax port is not thorough and not complete. It was done more |
|---|
| 15 | as an exercise in porting top than as an effort to create something |
|---|
| 16 | useful. Currently cpu state percentages are not calculated. |

| 17 | |

| 18 | The Multimax port was written by William LeFebvre. |
