- Mac users diagnosing slowdowns or heavy processes
- Worth noticing
- The page says macOS does not share per-app GPU use, so Ebb does not report a made-up figure.
Field notes
The page lays out separate readings for CPU, memory, disk, network, and energy, plus process lists and controls such as ending a process. Its example replay attributes a spike to Xcode building for about 40 seconds. The site also says macOS does not expose per-app GPU use, so that breakdown is not supplied.
