BTOP++ is a power resource monitor for Linux

• btop

  102 16,073 9.3 C++

  A monitor of resources

On the surface looks like an improvement over htop ( which I've been using for 10+ years )

But this is the kind of software that I would want to keep using. Will btop keep being supported? Is btop going to be available in practically all distros I use? Even currently on Arch its only in the AUR.

Its also concerning there is btop[0] and bpytop[1]? I don't understand the difference.

  Yet another cross-platform graphical process/system monitor.

Maybe 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.

  A time traveling resource monitor for modern Linux systems

  

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.

  A top utility for IO

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.
