DESCRIPTION
bpftop is a terminal-based command-line utility that provides a dynamic, real-time view of running eBPF programs on Linux. It tracks performance metrics such as average runtime, events per second, and estimated total CPU utilization for each program. Designed to minimize system overhead, it dynamically enables statistics collection only while active and provides interactive graphs, sorting, and process filtering.
