I have been using glances for a terminal sysmon but I don't like that it eats so much RAM. Can someone please recommend a system monitor that is easy to comprehend and less resource hungry?
I am also curious about below [0] since it came up recently.

- smoldesu 5y agoMaybe bottom[0]? I use bpytop but probably wouldn't recommend it on account of how heavy it is. I remember bottom being pretty lightweight when I used it, without sacrificing readability. [0] https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom
- jeffbee 5y agoKinda depends on what you want to know and how much memory you think is too much. Implementations range from sar to atop to netdata and many others.
- sk5t 5y ago'nmon' doesn't get much attention, but it feels lightweight (I haven't tested if it really is) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nmon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nmon
- stjohnswarts 5y agoytop is nice rust based one if you like the rust ecosystem, it's still good even if you don't but I think you need to install cargo/rust in most cases to build it, I don't think anyone packages it. "cargo install ytop" -> .cargo/bin/ytop
