The System Monitor app Ubuntu comes with does an okay job of letting you monitor system resources and oversee running processes \u2014 but it does look dated… [T]he app’s graphs and charts are tiny, compact, and lack the glanceability and granular-detail that similar tools on other systems offer. <\/p>\n
Thankfully, there are plenty of ace System Monitor alternatives available on Linux, with the Rust-based Resources being the latest tool to the join the club. And it’s a real looker… Resources shows real-time graphs showing the utilisation of core system components… You can also see a [sortable and searchable] list of running apps and processes, which are separated in this app. <\/p>\n
It’s also possible to select a refresh interval “from very slow\/slow\/normal\/fast\/very fast (though tempting to select, ‘very fast’ can increase CPU usage).” And selecting an app or process “activates a big red button you can click to ‘end’ the app\/process (a submenu has options to kill, halt, or continue the app\/process instead)…” <\/p>\n
“If you don’t like the ‘Windows-iness’ of Mission Center \u2014 which you may have briefly spotted it in my Ubuntu 23.10 release video \u2014 then Resources is a solid alternative.”<\/p>\n
