 I run gkrellm and it lists 340 procs.  Before it used to be a smaller number

gkrellm isn't necessarily counting background services.  The real number of background services can be found out using systemctl --type=service.  In my system I see 67.   In any case, I wouldn't worry about number of processes unless you have a performance problem.

LOAD   = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB    = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.

61 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.


There are 121 services here when I pass --all.  How many of these are unneeded?


Best Regards,


Antonio
