Package: iotop Status: install ok unpacked Priority: optional Section: admin Installed-Size: 108 Maintainer: Paul Wise Architecture: amd64 Source: iotop (0.6-42-ga14256a-0.3) Version: 0.6-42-ga14256a-0.3+b1 Depends: python3 (<< 3.14), python3 (>= 3.13~), python3:any Description: simple top-like I/O monitor iotop does for I/O usage what top(1) does for CPU usage. It watches I/O usage information output by the Linux kernel and displays a table of current I/O usage by processes on the system. It is handy for answering the question "Why is the disk churning so much?". . iotop can only run under a Linux 2.6.20 or later kernel built with the CONFIG_TASKSTATS, CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT, CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING and CONFIG_VM_EVENT_COUNTERS build config options on.
