Live CPU, memory, disk, and network usage, per process.
Kudu's Performance Monitor gives you live CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics with per-process resource tracking and S.M.A.R.T. disk health analysis. Spot bottlenecks before they become problems.
What you see while it runs.
CPU, memory, disk I/O, network throughput, and process-level resource usage — all updated in real time with historical trend charts.
CPU & memory at a glance
Per-core CPU utilization, total and per-process memory consumption, swap usage, and system load averages. Historical charts let you spot patterns and correlate spikes with specific processes.
Disk health & network throughput
S.M.A.R.T. disk health analysis warns you about failing drives before you lose data. Network throughput charts show upload, download, and per-process bandwidth consumption in real time.
What the Performance Monitor tracks.
CPU Utilization
Per-core usage, system load averages, and process-level CPU consumption with historical trending.
Memory & Swap
Total, used, and per-process memory. Swap usage tracking with alerts for high memory pressure.
Disk I/O
Read/write throughput, IOPS, and queue depth per disk. Identify which processes are thrashing your drives.
Network Throughput
Upload and download bandwidth per interface and per process. Spot unexpected network activity instantly.
S.M.A.R.T. Health
Monitor disk health attributes, temperature, reallocated sectors, and remaining life predictions.
Process Explorer
Sort running processes by CPU, memory, disk, or network. Kill or prioritize processes directly from Kudu.
Historical Charts
All metrics are charted over time so you can spot trends, correlate events, and diagnose intermittent issues.
Startup Impact
See how each startup item affects boot time and ongoing resource usage. Disable heavy hitters with one click.
CLI Output
Export metrics to JSON or pipe them into your own monitoring scripts. Perfect for headless servers.
By the numbers
Most people have no idea what's eating their CPU or filling their RAM. Kudu makes it obvious — and actionable.
Subsystems monitored — CPU, memory, disk, network, and processes.
Metrics updated live with per-second granularity.
Disk health analysis to catch failing drives early.
