NAME
       gnome-system-monitor - view system processes and monitor system usage

SYNOPSIS
       gnome-system-monitor [gnome-std-options]

DESCRIPTION
       The System Monitor application displays a list of system processes, and
       monitors system usage. System Monitor shows which processes are running
       and how the processes are related.

       System Monitor also provides detailed information about individual pro-
       cesses, and enables the user to control which  processes  are  running.
       System Monitor displays how much processor (CPU) capacity the system is
       using, and how much disk space the system is using on each device.

       System Monitor displays this information in a  graphical  interface  so
       that  users  can  see  what the system is doing. Users can then use the
       same graphical interface to modify the behavior of the system.
