Activity Monitor is a system monitor for the OS X operating system, which also incorporates task manager functionality.[2][3] Its functions include:
- Quitting or "killing" a computer process
- Viewing the computer's CPU load
- Checking the amount of random access memory in use or swapped out
- Checking the amount of hard disk read-ins and write-outs
- Checking the capacity of storage devices
- Monitoring the computer's network usage
- Inspecting running computer processes
- Viewing a process identifier number
- Viewing information about a particular process
Activity Monitor appeared in Mac OS X v10.3, when it subsumed the functionality of the programs Process Viewer (a task manager) and CPU Monitor found in the previous version of OS X.[4][5]
In OS X 10.9, Activity Monitor was significantly revamped and gained a 5th tab for "energy" (in addition to CPU, memory, disk, and network).[6]
