Expectation:
- The program has GUI to show multiple sensors, at least CPU/GPU temperatures and voltages, and preferably energy and fans;
- The program shouldn’t have system overhead when it is not running;
- The program shouldn’t disturb the system too much when it is running: for example, spawning a few threads polling on sensors are fine, but spawning a lot of processes and uses a lot of IPC is not wanted.
There is an similar question, but that question has different requirements (e.g. remote) AND didn’t have useful answers for me.
Linux program to monitor hardware sensors (temperatures, fans and voltages)?
Monitorix is not an option because it is heavy weight:
- Requires a persistent systemd service;
- Seems to spawn processes;
- Requires a browser to access GUI (definitely heavy weight).
