Computer system monitors come in all shapes and sizes. Most of them run on the computer desktop where they provide quick access to realtime system information like the computer’s cpu, computer memory and hard drive usage. GKrellM for Windows is a computer system monitor that can display this and many more information in a compact window that can be moved around freely on the computer desktop.
GKrellM can also display the current date and time, Internet connection and network speed, file system information, battery display, uptime and email account information besides the already mentioned cpu, computer memory and hard drive usage. Each of the available information can be disabled in case they are not needed to reduce the overall size of the system monitor.
There are several settings which can be changed for every system component that is monitored. This ranges from layout changes for the time and date to different charts but also options that can be configured. Options are for example alerts if the system load or computer memory usage reaches a limit or to select a different animation for incoming emails.
A reduction of modules that are displayed in the computer system monitor reduces the memory and cpu usage of the program as well which many will find beneficial. The program with all options and modules enabled uses roughly 20 Megabytes of computer memory. The software program is available for both the Windows and Linux operating system (Linux system monitor review by Jack)
