That basically looks like every hollywood movie in existence
Can it show each core’s frequency? Or is there anything other than htop that can do that?
It does
I don’t see any option in 1.2.13, and https://github.com/aristocratos/btop/issues/190 suggests it isn’t implemented yet.
True, i confused it with clock frequency.
why ? Why do you feel the need to have process monitoring displayed all the time?
You can sort and filter it.
More generally, are you questioning why the Top category of tools exists?
no, I am questioning why do you have those open all the time. in 17y, I never had to. This is just ASCII pr0n to look “deep” .
I have it open all the time, exactly for this reason. 15 years and going.
Both are useless toys for newbie sysadmins who think their job is sitting and looking at list of processes.
I mean, you do sometimes need to check out which processes are running to debug
Aren’t
toporpgrepenough for that?If it looks better and does the same thing efficiently, I’ll take the thing that looks better.
You have a pre-installed tool and a tool that looks better but which you need to install. When you need it for a rare task, and you administer many machines, it is easier to use what you already have on each of them.
Do these programs not work over SSH?
Sorry, I don’t understand what you are talking about. Yes, you can run them in SSH session. No, you still need to have them installed on the remote machine to do this. And installing diagnostic tools is not only time consuming, sometimes it can be even impossible if you already get in troubles (and if you did not, why would you need them?).
Hmm, that’s a fair argument. I’m pretty sure new server installations can just have their default program list modified though.
Teach me how to know which process is hogging my memory or CPU, in less than 5 steps without htop?
Launch top? Quick glance, type ‘q’, then kill
Lol, top. Try that to figure out the load on a 256 core DGX slurm setup with that shit. Top is barely usable on consumer hardware…
do you experience that often ? anyway, the plain, basic ‘top’ command can provide it to you. There’s literally a column %CPU and %MEM
Nice gatekeeping.
It’s not even about sysadmins, it’s just hacker wannabe. tomorrow they will say “coz I waNt to maSter mo sYstem”.
yep good luck in auditing the 1.5k packages installed on your system.
