It turs out, there are a lot of tops out there. I thought I might find pw-top usefule. I
found these 3 that might fit the bill for you. I had heard of the first two before. It
all depends on how you define "better". I find top pretty much does what I need,
mnost of the time.
Maybe atop:
An advanced interactive monitor for Linux-systems to view the
load on system-level and process-level.
The command atop has some major advantages compared to other
performance-monitors:
- Resource consumption by all processes
- Utilization of all relevant resources
- Permanent logging of resource utilization
- Highlight critical resources
- Watch activity only
- Watch deviations only
- Accumulated process activity per user
- Accumulated process activity per program

or maybe bpytop:
