Vitals.app has a great feature that you don't see in Activity Monitor.

…what is it?

Keeps the CPU percentage history of every process running or recently exited.

Honestly combed it over and it didn’t tell us anything other than high mem utilization/pressure. I’m not sure what the deal is but I’ve found AM on Mac’s almost…deceptive? It feels like I’m not getting the full story sometimes. We use one at my office for live streams and the math on resources often does not check out. Our head of engineering agrees that his experience with the silicon chips has been that they do not like to let go of tasks/processes and can be a little opaque about what it is doing in the background.

I know it sounds a lot like vibes, because it kind of is, but it’s just what we’ve seen.

Why are the tools you linked better though, they mostly use the same APIs

I think you’re mixing me up with sys. I didn’t link anything
