Its upstream README describes it as an nvtop-inspired terminal tool for M1-era macOS systems, built around Apple's powermetrics plus psutil, sysctl, and system_profiler. ### Projektgeschichte The GitHub repository was created in October 2021, shortly after Apple Silicon machines had become common enough for developers to want terminal-native CPU, GPU, memory, and power visibility. The README says the author wrote it because they could not find an equivalent tool online and were curious about the hardware counters. The project is deliberately macOS-specific. Its implementation relies on powermetrics, which requires elevated privileges, and the README documents limitations caused by Apple removing some memory bandwidth and package power data from powermetrics. ### Adoptionsgeschichte asitop spread as a small Apple Silicon utility rather than as a cross-platform monitoring suite. GitHub repository metadata shows several thousand stars, and Homebrew analytics report thousands of installs over the previous year, indicating continuing package-manager use among Mac developers and performance tinkerers. ### Wie es verwendet wird The normal workflow is to install the package and run `sudo asitop` in a terminal. It presents CPU cluster, GPU, ANE, memory, swap, frequency, utilization, and power estimates in a terminal UI, with options for sampling interval, color, and rolling average. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package-manager users, asitop is notable because it packages a niche macOS performance workflow into one CLI command. It sits in the same mental shelf as htop, nvtop, and powermetrics wrappers, but is tuned for Apple Silicon hardware counters rather than generic Unix process accounting. ### Zeitleiste - 2021: GitHub repository created for an Apple Silicon performance monitor. - 2024: Repository metadata still shows recent maintenance activity. - 2026: Homebrew API lists stable version 0.0.24 and recent install activity. ### Related projects - The README explicitly compares the project to nvtop and documents its reliance on Apple's powermetrics utility. ### Quellen - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Details aus der Quelldatenbank - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** asitop - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Requirements:** arch, macos - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - MacPorts - asitop: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: sysutils/asitop/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Verwandte Links - [Source-control packages](https://pkg.so/de/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/de/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://pkg.so/de/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Homebrew utility packages](https://pkg.so/de/brew-utility-packages/) - Matched Homebrew package provider. - [python@3.14](https://pkg.so/de/brew/python-3-14/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [mactop](https://pkg.so/de/brew/mactop/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: apple-silicon, cli, macos, monitoring, system. - [macmon](https://pkg.so/de/brew/macmon/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: apple-silicon, cli, macos, monitoring, system. - [devcockpit](https://pkg.so/de/brew/devcockpit/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: apple-silicon, cli, macos, monitoring, system. - [rainbarf](https://pkg.so/de/brew/rainbarf/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, cpu, monitoring, system. - [pv](https://pkg.so/de/brew/pv/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, monitoring, system. - [duf](https://pkg.so/de/brew/duf/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, monitoring, system. - [osx-cpu-temp](https://pkg.so/de/brew/osx-cpu-temp/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, macos, monitoring, system. - [node_exporter](https://pkg.so/de/brew/node-exporter/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, monitoring, system. ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
