|
The CPU stats are shown as a percentage or values and for the configured
|
|
refresh time.
|
|
|
|
The total CPU usage is displayed on the first line.

|
If enough horizontal space is available, extended CPU information are
|
|
displayed.

A character is also displayed just after the CPU header and shows the
|
|
trend value:

``-`` CPU value is equal to the mean of the six latests refreshes
|
|
``\`` CPU value is lower than the mean of the six latests refreshes

``/`` CPU value is higher than the mean of the six latests refreshes

CPU stats description:
|
|
|
|
- **user**: percent time spent in user space. User CPU time is the time
|
|
spent on the processor running your program's code (or code in
|
|
libraries).
|
|
- **system**: percent time spent in kernel space. System CPU time is the
|
|
time spent running code in the Operating System kernel.
|
|
- **idle**: percent of CPU used by any program. Every program or task
|
|
that runs on a computer system occupies a certain amount of processing
|
|
time on the CPU. If the CPU has completed all tasks it is idle.
|
|
- **nice** *(\*nix)*: percent time occupied by user level processes with
|
|
a positive nice value. The time the CPU has spent running users'
|
|
processes that have been *niced*.
|
|
- **irq** *(Linux, \*BSD)*: percent time spent servicing/handling
|
|
hardware/software interrupts. Time servicing interrupts (hardware +
|
|
software).
|
|
- **iowait** *(Linux)*: percent time spent by the CPU waiting for I/O
|
|
operations to complete.
|
|
- **steal** *(Linux)*: percentage of time a virtual CPU waits for a real
|
|
CPU while the hypervisor is servicing another virtual processor.
|
|
- **ctx_sw**: number of context switches (voluntary + involuntary) per
|
|
second. A context switch is a procedure that a computer's CPU (central
|
|
processing unit) follows to change from one task (or process) to
|
|
another while ensuring that the tasks do not conflict.
|
|
- **inter**: number of interrupts per second.
|
|
- **sw_inter**: number of software interrupts per second. Always set to
|
|
0 on Windows and SunOS.
|
|
- **syscal**: number of system calls per second. Do not displayed on
|
|
Linux (always 0).
|
|
- **dpc**: *(Windows)*: time spent servicing deferred procedure calls.
|
|
|
|
To switch to per-CPU stats, just hit the ``1`` key:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: ../_static/per-cpu.png
|
|
|
|
In this case, Glances will show on line per logical CPU on the system.
|
|
Logical cores means the number of physical cores multiplied by the number
|
|
of threads that can run on each core (this is known as Hyper Threading).
|
|
|
|
By default, ``steal`` CPU time alerts aren't logged. If you want that,
|
|
just add to the configuration file:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: ini
|
|
|
|
[cpu]
|
|
steal_log=True
|
|
|
|
