GPUFlo: One Afternoon, One Instrument, No Fake Zeros

Wed, 09 Sep 2026 10:00:00 -0700

GPUFlo is a terminal dashboard for AMD GPUs on Linux. It answers three questions in under a second: what is this GPU doing, how full is its memory pool, and is anything actually wrong. It is on crates.io and GitHub, MIT licensed, and it never phones home.

I want to write about it for two reasons. It is a small, finished thing, which is rare. And it is the first project Michael and I built where the shape of the tool came almost entirely from deciding what it would refuse to do.
