Ever wanted to know which processes are swapping and how much swap space they are using. Starting from kernel 2.6.16, we can find out using smaps which can be found in the proc filesystem. The script below will make it easy for you and lists all processes and how much swap space they are using.
The script:
#!/bin/bash
#
SUM=0
OVERALL=0
for DIR in `find /proc/ -maxdepth 1 -type d | egrep "^/proc/[0-9]"` ; do
PID=`echo $DIR | cut -d / -f 3`
PROGNAME=`ps -p $PID -o comm --no-headers`
for SWAP in `grep Swap $DIR/smaps 2>/dev/null| awk '{ print $2 }'`; do
let SUM=$SUM+$SWAP
done
echo "PID=$PID - Swap used: ${SUM}K - ($PROGNAME )"
let OVERALL=$OVERALL+$SUM
SUM=0
done
echo "Overall swap used: $OVERALL"
