# Obserware
An advanced system monitor utility written in Python and Qt
## About
Obserware makes monitoring of advanced metrics accessible with the use of interactive graphs and charts. It is built on free and open-source technologies such as Python, Psutil, PyCPUinfo, Distro and Qt5. With the use of the utility, you can monitor
- Advanced overview of the system health by monitoring CPU usage, memory utilization and swapping rate
- Granular counts of context switches, system calls and interrupts of both natures, software and hardware
- Per-core/per-thread CPU utilization, measured in both stress percentage and active clock speeds
- Per-core/per-thread CPU state times, measured in both occupancy percentage and duration in seconds
- Usage/availability information, measured in both occupancy percentage and active size in megabytes
- Storage counters, measured in unit counts, size in bytes, duration in seconds, merge counts and busy time in seconds
- Global network statistics gathered from all network interface cards, measured in packet count rate and size rate
- Statistics of uploads and downloads made since boot, measured in packet counts and size in bytes
- Per-NIC activity, transfer rate in packet counts and bytes, total transmission, dropped transfers and more
- Per-unit metrics in both, occupancy percentage and active size of physical and logical partitions
- Static information about mount location, file system, unit name and much more of physical and logical partitions
- Dynamic listing of processes in process IDs, names, terminal, usernames, states, CPU and memory usage and thread counts
- Per-process information with process IDs, CPU and memory usage, CPU/thread counts, context switches and more
- Per-process control with options to kill, resume, terminate or suspend those on demand
- Static software information on operating system and kernel as well as dependency versions for the application
- Static hardware information on CPU name, vendor, frequency, available feature flags and more
- While adapting to the global system-wide theming options on Qt-based desktop environments like KDE Plasma or LXQt
