About:
Icemon is a graphical monitoring tool for the Icecream distributed compilation system. It provides a real-time visual interface that displays the status of all connected compiler daemons, including their current jobs, load, and activity. This allows developers to quickly diagnose bottlenecks and understand how their distributed build resources are being utilized.

Key Features:

Real-time visualization of the Icecream network
Displays active jobs, compiler status, and host load
Identifies available and busy build slots across clients
Simple and lightweight graphical interface

Use Cases:

Monitoring the health and load of a distributed build farm
Debugging slow build times by identifying idle or overloaded nodes
Visualizing the distribution of compilation tasks across a team

Alternatives:

icecream (CLI) – The command-line client provides similar status information but lacks the intuitive visual overview of the GUI.
