[REQUEST] Display of and sorting by CPU time #878

Open pallaswept opened 5 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Sometimes we want to measure the performance of an application over a period of time. btop doesn't help too much, here. There is the lazy CPU sorting, which is helpful, but...

Describe the solution you'd like It would be great to be able to see statistics for a process's use of CPU over time.

Describe alternatives you've considered I'm open to suggestion :)

Additional context For example, here are the statistics in KDE's System Monitor:

This shows total time, system time, and user time... All three would be great in btop, but even just the total would be very helpful.

htop and top also show a TIME+ column, it is very helpful to see which processes have consumed the most cpu since last reboot.
