Rav, `ps' command gives you cumultive CPU time since process startup. You want the delta between two samplings. `top' is the ideal command for this unless you want to roll your own. By "truncate the output", do you mean you want to see a more complete command line? Pass -c to top. In fact, I always type `top -c' while others just type `top'. In order to record the output to a file, run it in batch mode with -b. To get a longer line size, set COLUMNS environment variable. In my Oracle-Linux Perfmon (http://yong321.freeshell.org/computer/Perfmon.html), I use this command: COLUMNS=132 top -cb 132 is the total line size, not just the command part.
