gnomesystemmonitor

Gnome System Monitor is a free and open-source system monitoring application for the GNOME desktop environment. It provides users with a graphical interface to view and manage processes, system resources, and file system information. The application is part of the GNOME desktop environment and is typically installed by default on many Linux distributions that use GNOME.

The primary functions of Gnome System Monitor include displaying a list of all running processes, allowing users to sort them by various criteria such as CPU usage, memory usage, or process ID. Users can interact with these processes by terminating them, changing their priority, or viewing their properties. Beyond process management, the tool also offers insights into system resource utilization. This includes real-time graphs and statistics for CPU, memory, and network activity. Users can monitor disk usage as well, with a breakdown of mounted file systems and their capacity.

Gnome System Monitor aims to provide an intuitive and accessible way for users to understand their system's performance and troubleshoot potential issues. Its graphical nature makes it suitable for users who may not be comfortable with command-line tools. The application is developed collaboratively and is available under the GNU General Public License.
