Display CPU usage separately (without root privileges)
- by synaptik
I need to display the CPU usage for each processing core on a single shared-memory 12-core (SMP) machine. I don't have access to install htop, else I would simply use that. I don't need fancy graphs or meters, though they would be nice.
For example, simply displaying:
X X X X X X X X X X X X
where each X is the percentage utilization of 1 of the 12 processing cores on my machine.
FYI: I know I can simply look at the utilization in "top" and divide that number by the number of cores on my machine, but I prefer a solution that shows each core separately.
