Monitoring Processes via Activity Monitor

The primary Mac OS X application for monitoring processes as they are running is Activity Monitor. This extremely useful tool shows you the vital signs of any currently running process and the system as a whole. If an application has stopped responding or has become noticeably slow, check Activity Monitor. Also check here if the overall system is running noticeably slower. Activity Monitor will help you identify an application or background process that is using a significant percentage of system memory or processor resources.

To view your Mac’s currently running processes with Activity Monitor:

1 Open /Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor.
