The only complaint about htop is that it starts numbering CPUs from 1, while in real life CPU numbers start at 0. When I see core 18 is pegged with system(red), I instinctively want to ask perf -C 18 what's up... but that's not right, is it 17 or 19 again? If you're going to do that, don't show CPU numbers at all, just the collection of bars.
- vonmoltke 6y agoThere is an option under "Display options" to change this.
- parliament32 6y agoIndeed, but why is starting from 1 the default? Literally no other software does this except for htop, and the numbers are meaningless because they're off-by-one when you try to compare to anything else.
