WTF are applets doing? Part 2.

Day 3 of the performance summit, and Alan gave an excellent presentation on the state of X, and what his team were up to. During the presentation, he mentioned a nice little utility called xrestop, which is a ‘top’ like utility that is able to trace what is happening in terms of resource usage in the X server that I had no idea about. Consequently, I created a package for Solaris [you’ll need the JDS build environment to build it though]. Thanks Alan for pointing it out, and thanks to Matthew for writing it.

Which brings me on to the title of this blog – which the screenshot below seems to highlight.
