Processes

The Processes tab is a live host process monitor backed by Linux /proc.

What you get

  • KPI strip: process count, aggregate CPU / RSS / threads, load, zombies
  • Sortable table with CPU / memory bars, state pills, age, I/O rates
  • Filters: Running, Hot CPU, Hot mem, I/O, Zombie, User, Kernel
  • Parent/child Tree view
  • Detail drawer: cmdline, cgroup, exe/cwd, FDs, ctxt switches, sparklines
  • CSV export · Follow refresh (1s / 2s / 5s) · jump to Charts top series

Requirements

  • Agent on Linux with readable /proc
  • Viewer role is enough for listProcesses
  • Historical top charts (processes.top_*) default on for Linux; set PEARDATA_PROCESSES=0 to disable
