--- Begin Message ---Package: procps Version: 1:3.3.4-2 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/bin/top Tags: upstream Hi, I'm almost certain the "old" top used to include processes that were in the "D" state in idle mode. This was very convenient because it was possible to see at a glance what processes a high load average is due to. The "new" top only lists processes that actually consumed CPU time in 'idle' mode. While this is certainly a valid interpretation of 'idle', I'd still like the ability to filter out processes that spend all their time in the "S" state and show all the rest. Thanks.

--- Begin Message ---The way top does its idle is the simplest and most straightforward for the user. There doesn;t seem to be a clearer way to half sort-of idle processes added.
