The part I don't like about System Monitor is that it freezes your
entire desktop if you have a mounted network filesystem (e.g. FUSE's
sshfs) and your network connection drops. Merely laggy network makes
the desktop experience jerky.
Doing I/O in the main compositor thread is a bad idea, but I don't think
the gnome-shell extension model supports threads, and not every API has
an async version.
