Dear All,

I want to find out top 15 memory consumption processes in HP UX. Can anyone give me any idea about it?

Try :

UNIX95=1 ps -e -o vsz,pid,ppid,user,args | sort -rn  | head -15

VSZ shows claimed/reserved/overcommitted memory.
I would rather sort on RSS that shows resident/initialized memory. Without header:

UNIX95=1 ps -e -o user= -o pid= -o rss= -o vsz= -o args= | sort -k3n | tail -15
