pumas

A nvtop-inspired command line tool for Apple Silicon Macs: aka M1, M2, ... This is basically a reimplemented version of [asitop] in Rust.

| Type | Metrics | Available | Comments | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Utilization | CPU Clusters, GPU, ANE | ✅ | History & current values. ANE util. is measured via power | | Power | CPU, GPU, ANE, total package | ✅ | History & current values | | Frequency | CPU Clusters, GPU | ✅ | Current avg. values | | Frequency | CPU Clusters, GPU | planned | Residency distrib. histograms | | Memory | RAM & swap: size and usage | planned | Apple removed memory bandwidth from powermetrics. |

Pumas uses the built-in powermetrics utility on macOS, which allows access to a variety of hardware performance counters. Note that it requires sudo to run due to powermetrics needing root access to run. Pumas is lightweight and has minimal performance impact.

Pumas only works on Apple Silicon Macs on macOS Monterey and later.

This is a work in progress.

Installation

sh cargo install pumas brew install graelo/tap/pumas

Quickstart

sh sudo pumas run

Usage

```sh $ pumas --help A power usage monitor for Apple Silicon.

Usage: pumas

Commands: run Run the power usage monitor generate-completion Print a shell completion script to stdout help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Options: -h, --help Print help -V, --version Print version ```

and

```sh $ pumas run --help Run the power usage monitor

Usage: pumas run [OPTIONS]

Options: -i, --sample-rate Update rate (milliseconds): min: 100 [default: 1000] --accent-color Accent color: ASCII code in 0~255 [default: 2] --gauge-bg-color Gauge background color: ASCII code in 0~255 [default: 7] -h, --help Print help (see more with '--help') -V, --version Print version ```

Details

powermetrics is used to measure the following:

• ❌ CPU usage via powermetrics (removed: incorrect on M2)
  • GPU utilization via active residency
  • CPU & GPU frequency
  • Package/CPU/GPU/ANE energy consumption

sysinfo crate is used to measure the following:

• per-cluster CPU utilization
• per-core CPU utilization (planned)

sysctl is used to measure the following:

• CPU name
• CPU core counts

system_profiler is used to measure the following:

• GPU core count

Some information is guesstimate and hardcoded as there doesn't seem to be a official source for it on the system:

• CPU, GPU & ANE max power draw
