    I find topas to be OK, but I really like nmon. Much easier to tailor it to
    what you're interested in on a particular occasion. We also have it running
    in the background to collect stats to go through the nmon analyser.

Hmm,
try to compile top on your machine
or
use nmon
(http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/eserver/articles/analyze_aix/)
or believe in topas, which has more abilities than top.
