Glances is a very sleek tool, but it comes at a cost: CPU usage.
As a ballpark measurement, running htop for 60s with a 3s refresh interval takes 0.2s of user time. Running glances (even with almost all modules plugins disabled) for the same amount of time takes 6.7s of user time.
I still use glances every now and then, but I don't leave it running like I might with htop
