This is the live component responsible for the Processes pillar: an etop-style, auto-refreshing table of the busiest processes on a selected node, ranked by reductions (delta per refresh interval), memory or message queue length, with a per-process drill-down panel.

Refresh ticks carry a generation counter: changing any control bumps the generation and starts a new timer chain, so a tick from a cancelled chain that was already in flight is ignored instead of spawning a second chain.
