os.popen('top -n1').readlines()Hm, interesting. On Mac OS X's (and BSD's?) top, -n instead specifies the number of processes to list at a time (i.e. list only the top N processes), which is entirely different.
[reaching over to my Mac] Looks like "top" there supports a -l parameter which does something similar.
