Iotop是一个非常有用的工具。它提供了每个进程/线程的I/O和交换使用情况的实时统计数据。默认情况下，它显示每个线程，但你可以执行iotop -P来获取每个进程的信息。默认情况下，这是不可用的。您可能需要通过rpm/apt安装。

这是我的一句话:

cat /proc/*/status | grep -E 'VmSwap:|Name:' | grep VmSwap -B1 | cut -d':' -f2 | grep -v '\-\-' | grep -o -E '[a-zA-Z0-9]+.*$' | cut -d' ' -f1 | xargs -n2 echo | sort -k2 -n

这一行的步骤是:

Get all the data in /proc/process/status for all processes Select the fields VmSwap and Name for each Remove the processes that don't have the VmSwap field Remove the names of the fields (VmSwap: and Name:) Remove lines with -- that were added by the previous step Remove the spaces at the start of the lines Remove the second part of each process name and " kB" after the swap usage number Take name and number (process name and swap usage) and put them in one line, one after the other Sort the lines by the swap usage

还有两种变体:

因为top或htop不能安装在小型系统上，所以浏览/proc总是可能的。

即使在小型系统上，你也会发现一个壳…

一个shell变体!(不仅仅是bash)

这与loolotux脚本完全相同，但没有任何到grep, awk或ps的分支。这要快得多!

由于bash是性能最差的shell之一，我们做了一些工作，以确保该脚本在dash、busybox和其他一些环境下能够正常运行。然后，(感谢Stéphane Chazelas)再次变得更快!

OVERALL=0
for FILE in /proc/[0-9]*/status ;do
    SUM=0
    while read FIELD VALUE;do
        case $FIELD in
            Pid )    PID=$VALUE         ;;
            Name )   PROGNAME="$VALUE"  ;;
            VmSwap ) SUM=${VALUE%% *} ; break ;;
        esac
    done <$FILE
    [ $SUM -gt 0 ] &&
        printf "PID: %9d  swapped: %11d KB (%s)\n" $PID $SUM "$PROGNAME"
    OVERALL=$((OVERALL+SUM))
done
printf "Total swapped memory: %14u KB\n" $OVERALL

别忘了双引号“$PROGNAME”!请看Stéphane Chazelas的评论:

read FIELD PROGNAME < <(
    perl -ne 'BEGIN{$0="/*/*/../../*/*"} print if /^Name/' /proc/self/status
)
echo $FIELD "$PROGNAME"

不要尝试在合理的系统上不带双引号的回显$PROGNAME，并在此之前准备好杀死当前shell !

还有一个perl版本

当这变成一个不那么简单的脚本，时间来编写一个专用的工具，使用更有效的语言。

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use Getopt::Std;
my ($tot,$mtot)=(0,0);
my %procs;

my %opts;
getopt('', \%opts);

sub sortres {
    return $a <=> $b                                          if $opts{'p'};
    return $procs{$a}->{'cmd'} cmp $procs{$b}->{'cmd'}        if $opts{'c'};
    return $procs{$a}->{'mswap'} <=> $procs{$b}->{'mswap'}    if $opts{'m'};
    return $procs{$a}->{'swap'} <=> $procs{$b}->{'swap'};
};

opendir my $dh,"/proc";

for my $pid (grep {/^\d+$/} readdir $dh) {
    if (open my $fh,"</proc/$pid/status") {
        my ($sum,$nam)=(0,"");
        while (<$fh>) {
            $sum+=$1 if /^VmSwap:\s+(\d+)\s/;
            $nam=$1 if /^Name:\s+(\S+)/;
        }
        if ($sum) {
            $tot+=$sum;
            $procs{$pid}->{'swap'}=$sum;
            $procs{$pid}->{'cmd'}=$nam;
            close $fh;
            if (open my $fh,"</proc/$pid/smaps") {
                $sum=0;
                while (<$fh>) {
                    $sum+=$1 if /^Swap:\s+(\d+)\s/;
                };
            };
            $mtot+=$sum;
            $procs{$pid}->{'mswap'}=$sum;
        } else { close $fh; };
    };
};
map {
    printf "PID: %9d  swapped: %11d (%11d) KB (%s)\n",
        $_, $procs{$_}->{'swap'}, $procs{$_}->{'mswap'}, $procs{$_}->{'cmd'};
} sort sortres keys %procs;
printf "Total swapped memory: %14u (%11u) KB\n", $tot,$mtot;

能不能带着一个跑

-c  sort by command name
-p  sort by pid
-m  sort by swap values
by default, output is sorted by status's vmsize

我认为，您可以通过运行top并查找使用大量内存的活动进程来得到一个很好的猜测。通过编程实现这一点比较困难——只要看看关于Linux OOM杀手启发式的无休止的争论就知道了。

交换是一种活动使用的内存比安装的内存多的功能，因此通常很难将其归咎于单个进程。如果这是一个持续的问题，最好的解决方案是安装更多的内存，或进行其他系统更改。

在MacOSX上，你也可以运行top命令，但需要输入“o”，然后输入“vsize”，然后输入ENTER。

运行top，然后按OpEnter。现在进程应该根据它们的交换使用情况进行排序。

这是一个更新，因为我原来的答案没有提供一个确切的答案，在评论中指出的问题。从htop常见问题:

It is not possible to get the exact size of used swap space of a process. Top fakes this information by making SWAP = VIRT - RES, but that is not a good metric, because other stuff such as video memory counts on VIRT as well (for example: top says my X process is using 81M of swap, but it also reports my system as a whole is using only 2M of swap. Therefore, I will not add a similar Swap column to htop because I don't know a reliable way to get this information (actually, I don't think it's possible to get an exact number, because of shared pages).
