KEYS
Note that keys are case sensitive. For example use upper-case *P* (shift
P) to sort by %CPU. *^* before a key means a Ctrl key, so *^L* is Ctrl
*P* Sort by %CPU.
- *M* Sort by memory.
+ *M* Sort by total memory. Note that this shows the total memory
+ allocated to the guest, not the memory being used.
*T* Sort by total time.
this behaviour may change in the future.
