Yeah well.. presented with 80-column space constraints, however, I'd prefer to have a threads column rather than a virtual memory usage column (especially when that "virtual memory" isn't a real resource limit since the system is overcommitting, except when you set artificial limits via ulimit etc.)

What is so interesting about the number of threads of an application? I would add an option for use in the TOP env var or on the command line.
