I tried btop. It slowed my computer way the fuck down, so I went back to htop
yeah you need a decently fast hw accelerated terminal for it
for example, the gnome terminal is pretty slow; if you're using it, try running it in alacrity or kitty and see if that improves performance.I'll have to check it out. I've seen kitty mentioned a few times but I'm an oldschool xterm kinda guy lol
really? I've never had much issues
My laptop went bonkers trying to run it, maybe I have something misconfigured somewhere. I wanted to like it because it looks great, but I couldn't because it was seemingly too resource intensive.
i see, that's a bit of a shame because i enjoy it a lot.
Somebody mentioned I may have been running bpytop, so maybe this whole thing is my bad. I honestly can't remember what I ran now - I thought it was btop
Maybe you used bpytop, not btop? They look the same iirc.
Oh, you might actually be right there... I'm not sure now I didn't realize there were alternatives.
I remember trying it a while back when I found a list of fancy looking terminal apps. It was fancy, but it came at the cost of performance.
