Resource statistics collection method and apparatus and terminal

A terminal, comprising a processor, a storage, and at least one hardware resource, wherein the processor, the storage, and the at least one hardware resource are separately connected to a communications bus, a set of program code is stored in the storage, and the processor is configured to invoke the program code stored in the storage, so as to perform the following steps:

• recording a process running on a terminal at each of at least two time points;
• for each of the time points, obtaining at least one hardware resource invoked by the process at the time point;
• obtaining a process set comprising processes running at the at least two time points, wherein the process set comprises one or more processes;
• and
• obtaining, according to the at least one hardware resource invoked by the process in the process set, information about the at least one hardware resource occupied by an application associated with the process in the process set.
