psutil

psutil is tightly integrated with Python and does not offer official support for other programming languages, limiting its use in polyglot environments.

Frequent calls to psutil's monitoring functions can introduce noticeable performance overhead, especially under high load conditions or when used in real-time applications.

While basic usage is well-documented, more complex scenarios such as handling edge cases on different operating systems are not thoroughly covered, leading to a steep learning curve for advanced users.

Using psutil to manipulate processes (like killing or suspending) can pose security risks if not handled carefully, especially in multi-user environments where permissions and isolation are critical.
