Using the psutil library saves a lot of work here.
You can install it via the various methods described on this page

Getting CPU usage, heap usage, thread count, and process count:

import psutil
import threading


print("CPU usage", psutil.cpu_percent())
print("HEAP usage", psutil.virtual_memory())
print("Active thread count", threading.active_count())
print("Process count", len([*psutil.process_iter()]))
