The columns in the output are:
F Process flag
S State of the process: S=sleeping, R=running, T=stopped or traced,
D=interruptable sleep, Z=zombie. The process state is discussed further in
Chapter 1.1.7, “Process state” on page 7.
UID Name of the user who owns (and perhaps started) the process.
PID Process ID number
PPID Parent process ID number
LWP LWP(light weight process, or thread) ID of the lwp being reported.
C Integer value of the processor utilization percentage.(CPU usage)
NLWP Number of lwps (threads) in the process. (alias thcount).
PRI Priority of the process. (See 1.1.4, “Process priority and nice level” on page 5 for
details.)
NI Niceness level (that is, whether the process tries to be nice by adjusting the
priority by the number given; see below for details).
ADDR Process Address space (not displayed)
SZ Amount of memory (code+data+stack) used by the process in kilobytes.
