ps(1) man page says: re core residency time (in seconds; 127 = infinity) but the output looks like this instead: PID STAT TIME SL RE PAGEIN VSZ RSS LIM TSIZ %CPU %MEM COMMAND 62934 S 0:00.37 16 1723 1 2912 2256 - 1036 0.0 0.9 /home/httpd 92821 S 0:00.59 16 3184 0 2900 2248 - 1036 0.0 0.9 /home/httpd 96372 S 0:00.47 16 3123 1 2900 2244 - 1036 0.0 0.9 /home/httpd by "127 = infinity" they mean that values higher than 127 are represented as 127 3123 > 127 On NetBSD where someone fixed it the columns are not pushed over too far: PID STAT TIME SL RE PAGEIN VSZ RSS LIM TSIZ %CPU %MEM COMMAND 28398 S 5:07.20 1 127 942 23328 8336 57800 9388 0.1 12.8 /usr/loca 19246 Is 0:04.11 126 127 3900 16828 52 57800 136 0.0 0.1 mount_mfs 23242 Ss 826:29.45 0 127 33405 12312 17504 57800 2604 0.6 26.9 /usr/X11R How-To-Repeat: Run ps with options that produce the RE and/or SL columns.
