I'd guess that "-n" is actually the number of iteration and not the
number of lines. You should try "-b -n 1" and see if that gets you
a single page.

If you want to restrict the number of output lines, and your version
of "top" does not support this, you may need to hack on bb-cpu.sh
and add a "head" command to trim the output.

Cheers, Phil.
