Simple Raspberry Pi command line monitoring tool:
- CPU fequencies (ARM, Core, H264, V3D, ISP)
- Temperature (current and peak) for Core and/or PMIC
- IRQ/s
- Network Rx/Tx
- System utilisation (percentage user, nice, idle etc.)
- CPU load (including individual cores when available)
- GPU mem usage
- RAM usage (with/without swap)
- Memory leak detection (
D/Aoptions - instantaneous and accumulated memory deltas) - Undervoltage, ARM frequency cap and temperature throttle event monitoring
- Customisable columns
Tested with Raspbian, LibreELEC and OSMC/Raspbmc.
Displayed values can be coloured (white, green, amber and red) to highlight excess usage or resource depletion. Disable with m option.
View available options with -h.
Specify a default configuration in ~/.bcmstat.conf, eg:
xgd10
up to Raspberrry Pi 5
