Highlight CPU/IO/RAM heavy processes

Would be great if the XFCE Task Manager highlighted CPU/IO/RAM heavy processes using a different color or a bold font.

The threshold to highlight could be:

  • For CPU: more than 50% of a single core (which means 10%+10%+10%+10%+10% of five cores is also a grounds to highlight)
  • For IO: I've no clue, let's make it more than 1MB of throughput per second (IO read + IO write)
  • For RAM: either more than 10% of RAM (there are PCs with just 4GB of RAM where even 400MB of RAM is an enormous amount) or more than 1GB for all others
