![]() As said before, you can save the collected system data to CSV files for later analysis. A “Black & White” mode (it uses few colors by default for creating graphs). Minimal Mode: Which only displays “busy” processes and their disk bandwidth usages. Change the data update rate using keyboard (+/-). Fetches data from hardware devices such as: CPU load (system/user) and processor’s wait and idle seconds, Memory related data (RAM usage, full capacity, Swap file usages etc), Kernel status (system load, runtime etc), long-term CPU data (graphs with previous CPU usages), Disk status (read/write, transfer rate), various network related data (packets sent/received, bandwidth monitoring, transfer rate, etc), advanced CPU data fetching (manufacture, cache sizes, instructions etc), see running “top-processes” (which is quite handful while trying to find some of those hung-up apps) … these are only some of its main features to mention!. It uses the “ncurses” for creating those GUI windows inside of your command-line window. From real time system monitoring to saving the data for later analysis (can be useful for measuring the average system loads, power consumptions etc) it is a pretty powerful tool that’s worth checking out. If that’s so then you should check out this one called “nmon” (stands for Nigel’s Monitor). But if you’re a system administrator or a user who usually hangs around the Terminal or the command-line, then wouldn’t it be nice to type a command from same command-line window and open a system monitor without having to “switch over” to the mouse? The system monitoring utility that comes with Ubuntu is a GUI tool and it is pretty good too. ![]()
