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

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.

brew install graelo/tap/pumas

or

cargo install pumas

sudo pumas run

Use the arrow keys to switch between tabs. Press Esc, q or x to quit.

Overview Tab: global metrics for utilization and power consumption.

CPU Tab: per-cluster CPU utilization (with short history) and frequency (with short history)

GPU Tab: GPU utilization (with short history) and frequency (with short history)

SoC Tab: misc info about the SoC

Startup:

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

Usage: pumas <COMMAND>

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

Pumas can run in two modes: UI mode (the default) and JSON mode.

$ pumas run --help
Run the power usage monitor

Usage: pumas run [OPTIONS]

Options:
  -i, --sample-rate <SAMPLE_RATE_MS>     Update rate (milliseconds): min: 100 [default: 1000]
      --accent-color <ACCENT_COLOR>      Accent color: ASCII code in 0~255 [default: 2]
      --gauge-bg-color <GAUGE_BG_COLOR>  Gauge background color: ASCII code in 0~255 [default: 7]
      --json                             Print metrics to stdout as JSON instead of running the UI
  -h, --help                             Print help (see more with '--help')
  -V, --version                          Print version

In JSON mode, Pumas will stream metrics to stdout as JSON instead of running the UI. You can then pipe the metrics to jq, or create a node-exporter for Prometheus, etc.

For instance, the following command will stream the active ratio of the third CPU core of the first CPU cluster at each sample interval:

$ sudo pumas run --json | jq '.metrics.e_clusters[0].cpus[2].active_ratio'
0.04624276980757713
0.11764705926179886
^C

The JSON schema and an example are available in the schema directory.

sysinfo crate is used to measure the following:

• per-cluster CPU utilization
• per-core CPU utilization

powermetrics is used to measure the following:

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

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
