MenuMeters
2.0.3CPU, memory, disk, and network monitoring tools.
Overview
MenuMeters is a set of CPU, memory, disk, and network monitoring tools for Mac OS X. Although there are numerous other programs which do the same thing, none had quite the feature set I was looking for. Most were windows that sat in a corner or on the desktop, which are inevitably obscured by document windows on a PowerBook's small screen. Those monitors which used the menubar mostly used the NSStatusItem API, which has the annoying tendency to totally reorder my menubar on every login.
The MenuMeters monitors are true SystemUIServer plugins (also known as Menu Extras). This means they can be reordered using command-drag and remember their positions in the menubar across logins and restarts.
MenuMeters is open source freeware released under the GNU General Public License version 2.

As per the documentation (click the developer link at the top or go to https://member.ipmu.jp/yuji.tachikawa/MenuMetersElCapitan/), getting this version to work in 10.13 High Sierra required quitting and restarting System Preferences.
I downloaded this version of Menu Meters, 1.9.7, just in case I decide to give it a try. I'll give it a five star rating based on past experience.
