** Description changed: since upgrading to gutsy beta htop shows about fifty processes like the following pid user pri ni virt res shr s cpu% mem% time+ command 7582 root 23 0 7456 2016 1336 s 0.0 0.2 0:00.00 /usr/sbin/console-kit-deamon - that do not show up in top or ps. it also reports about fifty more total - tasks than top or ps. + It maybe the case that console-kit-daemon starts a thread for each + console that can theoretically exist. On Linux (/usr/include/linux/vt.h) + MAX_NR_CONSOLE is defined to be 63. + + Note that those processes do not show up in DEFAULT top or ps output + --BUT-- if you run either of those tools with the -H parameter, so as to + display all the threads of a process, then they do show up.
