This makes me want to see an actually gamified process monitor. Maybe it's a game where you gain points by reducing resource consumption

It’s not a process monitor, really, but to me the AWS Lightsail monitor tab feels like this. The “sustainable” line hits me right in the OCD to keep me grinding on cpu usage of the workload to keep extra spend at zero.

There was that version of `kill` that you interfaced with by playing Doom...

haha, triple simultaneous posts.... but that doom kill game isn't really the same as gamifying resource management. I would really want to see a gamified process monitor as well.
