Documented steps Run podman stats to stream resource usage for running containers, refreshing every 5 seconds by default. Include all containers (not just running) with podman stats --all; target one with podman stats <container-id>. For a one-shot snapshot use podman stats --no-stream. Get machine-readable output with podman stats --no-stream --format=json <container-id>. Select columns with a Go template: podman stats --no-trunc 3667 --format 'table {{.ID}} {{.Name}} {{.MemUsage}}'.
Known gotchas Set the poll interval with --interval/-i (default 5 seconds). Rootless environments cannot report network usage, so Net IO shows as '-- / --'. With rootlesskit port forwarding, traffic through the forwarded port is accounted to the lo device and is NOT included in the stats output. --latest/-l is not available on remote clients (macOS/Windows except WSL2) and may target another user's container. Use --no-reset to avoid clearing the screen between reporting intervals.
