Show HN: TTop – System monitoring tool with historical data, triggers and TUI
github.comIt is not top/htop replacement because of historical snapshots which can help you to find problems back in time Seems like a bit of a combination of "sar" (sysstat) and pt-stalk - a percona-toolkit tool originally designed for MySQL DBAs that would let you wait until a certain system or MySQL condition happened (high cpu, disk I/O, connections maxed out, etc) and then start collecting lots of system and MySQL stats. Rather than having to do them all the time. Plus a nice TUI :) What's the value add when comparing this with `atop`? atop has a history recording feature that I have relied on in past. - atop does not have mounts status - interface a bit more intuitive:
- you see full day on top chart, see spikes on it and scroll into the moment to check it in details - alerts/notifications - does not need root At what resolution does it store the sampled metrics? How easily are they pruned/aged out? if installed from root then /var/log/ttop else ~/.cache/ttop
