[PLUG] Which Process is Thrashing my Disk?
|
Lately my computer occasionally becomes unexpectedly bogged down by massive
disk I/O. My CPU utilization is low, but because of the high disk I/O, the
system is **very** sluggish.
I've got DMA enabled on my disks, so I think I've minimized the effect of disk
I/O on my system, but I can't figure out which process is causing all the
activity.
Is there a version of "top" that will show the I/O activity by process instead
of CPU activity?
