Perhaps someone else will chime in. I don't use GNOME.
You may also want to familiarize yourself with the command-line alternatives which are much richer in output --
top(1),
netstat(1),
etc.

As for other Window Managers such as GNUStep, XFCE, WindowMaker (not a KDE user at the present; but presume they have some) are there any similar tools for them?

I believe WindowMaker has one available, but I don't know the name. Two others used on minimal environments are
conky &
gkrellm. I use gkrellm with
fluxbox and/or
cwm(1).

See
