+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-cgtop</command> shows the top control
+ groups of the local Linux control group hierarchy, ordered by
+ their CPU, memory, or disk I/O load. The display is refreshed in
+ regular intervals (by default every 1s), similar in style to
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>top</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+ If a control group path is specified, shows only the services of
+ the specified control group.</para>
+
+ <para>If <command>systemd-cgtop</command> is not connected to a
+ tty, no column headers are printed and the default is to only run
+ one iteration. The <varname>--iterations=</varname> argument, if
+ given, is honored. This mode is suitable for scripting.</para>
+
+ <para>Resource usage is only accounted for control groups in the
+ relevant hierarchy, i.e. CPU usage is only accounted for control
+ groups in the <literal>cpuacct</literal> hierarchy, memory usage
+ only for those in <literal>memory</literal> and disk I/O usage for
+ those in <literal>blkio</literal>. If resource monitoring for
+ these resources is required, it is recommended to add the
+ <varname>CPUAccounting=1</varname>,
+ <varname>MemoryAccounting=1</varname> and
+ <varname>BlockIOAccounting=1</varname> settings in the unit files
+ in question. See
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for details.</para>
+
+ <para>The CPU load value can be between 0 and 100 times the number of
+ processors the system has. For example, if the system has 8 processors,
+ the CPU load value is going to be between 0% and 800%. The number of
+ processors can be found in <literal>/proc/cpuinfo</literal>.</para>
+
+ <para>To emphasize this: unless
+ <literal>CPUAccounting=1</literal>,
+ <literal>MemoryAccounting=1</literal> and
+ <literal>BlockIOAccounting=1</literal> are enabled for the
+ services in question, no resource accounting will be available for
+ system services and the data shown by
+ <command>systemd-cgtop</command> will be incomplete.</para>
