What's the best way to monitor and log which processes are responsible for high system load throughout the day? Tools like top and htop only provide immediate values, but I'm looking for a solution (social.harpia.red)

What's the best way to monitor and log which processes are responsible for high system load throughout the day? Tools like top and htop only provide immediate values, but I'm looking for a solution that offers historical data to identify the main culprits over time.

In my time we used sar. I feel old when reading about all your new tools I never heard of.
