Looking for Rust Project Ideas for Semester Project - Any Suggestions?
Rewrite something like https://linux.die.net/man/1/iotop in Rust. Currently it is implemented in python, and running it as root does not give a warm fuzzy feeling.( I C version has also been made : https://github.com/Tomas-M/iotop but I have not reviewed that )

A little review of process (task) monitors and system info tools
Process monitoring is mandatory but CPU and I/O monitoring can be useful. It does a moveable window so I can watch it on a second monitor, along with other app windows, when the app I'm testing is running full screen so conky, although nice, is not quite what I need. In a terminal I use htop and/or iotop but I find graphical apps to be easier to read. I didn't want to have to compile anything or use Flatpak/Snap/AppImage/whatever but there's already a bunch of monitors in the repos so I checked them out and here's what I found.

BTOP++ is a power resource monitor for Linux
I recommend the C reimplementation of iotop btw, it has lots more features and is more efficient and is maintained. It is packaged as iotop-c in Debian and other distros.

Ask HN: Interesting TUIs (text user interfaces), maybe forgotten ones?
These certainly aren't forgotten, but I like:
* `ranger` file manager: https://ranger.github.io/
* `ncdu` for visualising disk usage: https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu
* `htop` process monitor: https://htop.dev/
I just find them very intuitive, and information-dense while not being overwhelming.

Command line tools I always install on Ubuntu servers
Probably everyone knows about the "top" command. Htop is similar, but gives us a more user-friendly output. It shows processes using the most resources, how much available resources you have and who runs those processes. For more information, visit https://htop.dev/

distro hopping
determine which processes consume specific resources (in your particular case even a "5 minutes session of staring at htop" would do the trick.) (Alternatives: ps -ef, ps aux, top, glances ... )

Linux on older hardware as a programmer
When you see the laptop throttling, is htop or another monitoring program showing that the RAM is full, or is it only partly used?

c5.large instance - what is my actual CPU usage?
try htop. It's already on Ubuntu, not sure about other flavors.
