Track and control the processes running in your system.

General

KSysGuard is designed to make simple process control available to a user without needing to do any special setup - the defaults are usually perfectly adequate. There are two worksheets - the System Load page, pictured above, and the Process Table.

System Load

The System Load screen has three displays, each representing one of the load considerations - CPU History, Memory and Swap History and Network History. If you hover over the title-bar of each section you will see detailed analysis together with a colour-key.

The Process Table

The All Processes view by default gives you an alphabetical order list of all processes running. Clicking on any column header will make this the sort column. If you have a runaway process you will find the 'All Processes, Tree' view most useful. You can also elect to see sub-sets of the processes, by owner or program.

Hints and Tips

Ctrl+Esc brings up the Processes part of KSysGuard, which is very helpful when you are trying to find which application is using too many resources.

In KRunner (alt-F2 or from a right-click on the desktop) there is a tiny icon to the left of the entry bar - it looks like a microwave oven - that also brings up the Process Table.

-KSysGuard est conçu pour permettre à l'utilisateur un contrôle simple des processus sans avoir besoin de configurer quoi que ce soit de particulier -la configuration par défaut étant généralement satisfaisante. Il y a deux onglets - la page "Charge système", voir l'image ci-dessus, et la "Table des processus".

-La vue "Tous les processus" vous affichent par défaut la liste alphabétique de tous les processus en cours. Cliquer sur un en-tête de colonne permet de trier selon cette colonne. Si vous avez une longue liste de processus vous trouverez sans doute la vue "Tous les processus, Arbre" plus utile. Vous pouvez aussi décider de ne voir qu'un sous-ensemble des processus, par propriétaire ou par programme.
