htop als Linux-Alternative zu Process Lasso

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

htop is a useful tool for Linux users who need real‑time monitoring of CPU, memory, and process hierarchy. It covers most of the monitoring features of Process Lasso, but it does not provide automatic priority or affinity adjustment, nor does it throttle CPU or memory usage. It is best suited for users who want a lightweight, interactive console view and are comfortable using keyboard shortcuts to renice or kill processes. For those who need the automated workload balancing that Process Lasso offers, htop alone is insufficient.

Ihre Process Lasso-Dateien öffnen

Process Lasso stores its configuration in proprietary XML files (.plx). htop does not read or write these files and has no export/import feature for Process Lasso settings. Users must manually recreate any priority or affinity rules in htop by using the renice command or editing /etc/security/limits.conf.

Von Process Lasso zu htop wechseln – Schritt für Schritt

  1. Open Process Lasso and note the processes you want to renice or limit.
  2. Use htop’s F2 (Setup) to add a column for priority if desired.
  3. In htop, navigate to the process and press F9 to kill or F5 to renice, applying the values you noted.
  4. If you need affinity changes, use the command line tool taskset or edit /etc/security/limits.conf.
  5. Save any custom htop configuration by running htop -w to write the settings to a file.
  6. Document the manual steps so you can repeat them when needed.
