nvitop is an interactive NVIDIA GPU process viewer and monitoring tool built on NVML, offering a richer alternative to nvidia-smi with an htop-like terminal interface. It also includes a Prometheus exporter and Grafana dashboard for GPU monitoring.

Use cases

  • monitor gpu usage in terminal
  • see which processes are using my nvidia gpu
  • kill a stuck gpu process
  • interactive alternative to nvidia-smi
  • export gpu metrics to prometheus and grafana
  • monitor cuda memory usage on a shared gpu server

When to choose

  • you want an interactive, htop-style view of NVIDIA GPU processes
  • you need to identify and manage processes consuming GPU memory
  • you want GPU metrics exported to Prometheus/Grafana

When to avoid

  • you need monitoring of non-NVIDIA GPUs (AMD, Intel)
  • you only need a one-off GPU status query without interactivity
