Description
Ubuntu need a processes manager that will load quickly and thus be preloaded in memory to use it when I need it quickly, an process manager who always respond well light and have their "sleep" in the code to enable him to run in real time without harming the functioning of the machine to use it
That for me is essential because sometimes some software tilts and I have to wait forever to react, windows and even though it has many times the system becomes unstable be solved very quickly with the manager processes that possesses.
Ubuntu have one, but it doesn't meet this features
(preload, speed, reaction, response and high priority, etc)
It would be perfect to kill the process or lower the priority to be able to continue working normally while ending "freezes"
In ubuntu we can not act quickly drift which results in inefficient that can be solved easily in this way

Press ctrl+alt+f1 to go text based terminal and then kill the freezed process with kill.

Yes, thanks, but it isn't for humans ,it isn't preloaded and don't reponses when the system is freezed, quickly, and sometimes doesn't work, etc.

And... That isn't the philosophy of Ubuntu.

Greetings!

Agreed... sometimes it takes FOREVER for the v.t. to come up. Additionally, sometimes after going to v.t., can not get back to X session by ctrl-alt-F7; I have to kill X and restart it.

Make it unable to freeze instead.

Even though right now no of the default programs do that.

This is one of the things that bothered me the most, when i switched from windows. Ctrl-alt-delete is infamous, but at least it is very responsive.When ubuntu freezes, runs out of disk or memory, you can hardly do anything but pull the plug.

+1!

Um... gnome-system-monitor is preloaded. It's in your menu by default and it's pretty much a clone of the Windows task manager. If you need to kill programs a lot, add it to your panel or something.

If you've managed to remove it from your menu, try ALT+F2 and type gnome-system-monitor, then press enter

I mean preloaded into memory, not in the system.
Also does not have a quick reponse nor latency, sometimes have problems when try to change the priority of any programs and does not have the priority that should. These are some reasons.
When the computer freezes this is not responding as it should
This is essential in an process manager
