I could see a use, as this is Ubuntu Studio and not Ubuntu; music producers often need to check CPU usage of their software, and avoid pegging the CPU to avoid nasty pops, cracks and hisses caused by hardware hiccups. While some utilities have this built in, some don't, so it's good to keep an eye on CPU usage (and arguably, memory usage as well). As for an accelerator to use for this, pick one, stick with it. Ctrl+Alt+` would be my first suggestion, as it's similar to Ctrl+Escape, yet less likely to hit on accident by including Alt. If that doesn't work, well, fun times ahead. Good luck, -A.
