(Get the code!)
Michael, see attached screenshot.
It shows the configuration dialog for the gnome-shell system monitor extension, which has a checkbox "Display Individual Cores".
When this is ticked, you can see that the CPU graphs in the panel (at top) are now one per core. In the screenshot you can see the 2 leftmost graphs (in blue) as my laptop has 2 cores, and you can see that the graph pattern is different between the 2 cores (so it's the real activity of each core, as System Monitor is also able to report).
After the 2 CPU graphs I have one graph for network (yellow) and one for the disk (red, just a couple of spikes).
I understand that having 8 graphs for 8-cores CPUs may take a lot of space, but people can tune the width of the CPU graph or opt to not display individual cores.
However, for people like me, having the individual core activity available with a glance at the top panel would be a nice feature.
Thanks !
