GKrellM is a computer program based on the GTK+ toolkit that creates a single process stack of system monitors. It can be used to monitor the status of CPUs, main memory, hard disks, network interfaces, local and remote mailboxes, and many other things. Plugins are available for a multitude of tasks, e.g. controlling the XMMS media player or a SETI@home client from within the stacked monitor. GKrellM has become popular among users of GNU/Linux and *BSD systems. It comes in many different themes and uses small amount of RAM but it's not as extensible as other similar programs like gDesklets are.

GKrellM is free software, released under the GNU General Public License.
