I want to toggle the sizes top shows. top -M does work, but when I try to toggle the sizes after top has opened using shift+E (as some suggested) it does not work. Why is that and what is the alternative? I will appriciate any help!

  • What distro / version of top are you using? In the version i have 'E' works, this is my package info: procps-ng version 3.3.10 – Fredi Nov 11 '16 at 14:57

This seems to be version dependent. For example My Fedora 24 with procps-ng version 3.3.10 doesn't have the -M command line argument but it does have shift-E. My CentOS 6.8 with procps version 3.2.8 has the -M command line argument but it doesn't have shift-E. A quick scan of the man page on C6.8 doesn't reveal any way to do what you want if shift-E isn't available.
