NAME

       psi-notify - notify on system-wide resource pressure using PSI

DESCRIPTION

       psi-notify is a minimal unprivileged notifier for system-wide resource pressure using PSI.  This can help
       you  to  identify  misbehaving  applications  on your machine before they start to severely impact system
       responsiveness, in a way which MemAvailable, CPU graphs, I/O utilisation graphs and other metrics cannot.

OPTIONS

       psi-notify does not take any options. If any are provided, a help message will be printed and  psi-notify
       will exit.

CONFIGURATION

       You  can optionally put configuration in ~/.config/psi-notify.  Here's an example that will check roughly
       every 5 seconds, and pop up a notification when the configured values are exceeded:

              update 5
              log_pressures false

              threshold cpu some avg10 50.00
              threshold memory some avg10 10.00
              threshold io full avg10 15.00

       These are the default settings if no configuration is provided.

       For more information about how  these  values  are  calculated,  please  see  the  PSI  documentation  at
       https://facebookmicrosites.github.io/psi/.

DEPENDENCIES

       psi-notify  requires  Linux kernel 4.20+ and CONFIG_PSI=y.  You will also need a notification daemon that
       conforms to the Desktop Notifications specification to receive the notifications.
