Hogwatch is a bandwidth monitor that shows per-process network transfer using nethogs data plotted in a web-based GUI. It is a Python 2.7 application that runs a light web server or webview window to display real-time charts of which processes are consuming the internet connection.
Use cases
- find out which process is hogging my internet connection
- monitor per-application bandwidth usage
- see network transfer speed per process in a GUI
- visualize real-time network traffic charts
- identify what is using my bandwidth
When to choose
- you want a quick visual graph of per-process network usage on Linux or macOS
- you already use nethogs and want a GUI on top of it
- you need a one-off snapshot of what is consuming bandwidth
When to avoid
- you need a maintained tool - the project is explicitly unmaintained
- you need long-running monitoring - the process list grows and slows the UI
- you need per-device filtering, history across restarts, or PID/user details
- you are on Windows or need Python 3 support
