Monitor do sistema 
System Monitor shows you what programs are running and how much processor time, memory, and disk space are being used.
Monitorizando o CPU
A cantidade de CPU usada dille canto traballo está facendo o seu computador.
Computers with more processors find it easier to run many programs at the same time.
Se a súa computador está facendo moito traballo, usará máis tempo de procesador e máis memoria.
