CPU Usage Monitoring

> What is a good CPU Usage Monitoring tool?

Sorry for the off-topic and un-useful reply, but I never quite
understood the need for one. Like, a speedometer in a car makes sense,
because going too fast results in a ticket. An altimeter in a plane
makes sense, because going too low means crashing into things. I can
stretch myself to see the sense in continuously monitoring seismic
activity, or your own heart beat. But why the CPU monitoring tool?

Personally I'd just get the cheapest possible CPU fan, then you can
hear it when the thing is breaking a sweat. :)

Well, viruses are free. (In a 'beer' sense of course. :-) For some
reason viruses are rarely open-source. As such this is still a wide
open and unexplored territory for FOSS developers.
