Howdy!

I've had htop installed on my OPNsense machine for a while, but after upgrading to 22.7.3_2, it seems to no longer be available. Was it removed on purpose? Is there a similar alternative?

Thanks,
Tad

I install directly from freshports.  Here's what I use...

pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64/quarterly/All/htop-3.2.1.pkg
HP T730/AMD  RX-427BB/8GB/500GB SSD
HP NC365T 4-PORT

Standard FreeBSD top can already do quite a bit more than the Linux counterpart, so frequently htop is not strictly necessary. I recommend having a look at the manpage.

E.g. sorting by memory, CPU, swap, etc. all builtin.

To my knowledge htop was never in the binary packages.
