CLUSTER TERMINAL-DISPLAYS-MONITOR · 35 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2024-12-12

Terminal system monitoring tools

This cluster comprises terminal-based system monitors that display CPU, memory, disk, network, and process statistics, often with interactive or stylized text interfaces. Dated entries span from 2015 to mid-2026, with sporadic early months and a more concentrated set of entries from late 2025 through the first half of 2026. Traction leaders cmdbench, zswapstat, and ttop each show 0 stars, indicating limited community adoption so far.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 20 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
