Today I Learned - use nettop on macOS to see what's eating your network stack

One of my IBM colleagues drew my attention to nettop 

NAME

     nettop – Display updated information about the network


SYNOPSIS

     nettop [-ncd] [-m <mode>] [-t <type>] [-s <seconds>] [-p <process-name|pid>] [-n] [-l <samples>] [-L <samples>] [-P]

            [-j|k|J <column-name[,column-name]...>]


DESCRIPTION

     The nettop program displays a list of sockets or routes. The counts for network structures are updated periodically.
