User Reviews

• Very handy little application

  Pros

  Discrete design on the notifications tray Don't have to switch to desktop as with most other oadd-ons that perform this function Easy install

  Cons

  The CPU reading from the meter tends to be a little lower than task manager's. Maybe it isn't ready system processes

  Summary

  I install this on every computer I work with. It's very important to know what's happening with your CPU and RAM usage, in case a program is unknowingly throttling your CPU. It's especially useful on laptops, since a higher CPU usage results in faster battery drain.

• The meter is illegible

  Pros

  Ummmmmmmmmmm.... started running when I clicked on it?

  Cons

  This tray meter is tiny dark-green-on-black numerals. Not graphical. Not in any way shape or form readable. Sigh.

  Summary

  Doesn't do the job. Also, the install creates a zip file, which must then itself be installed. Not clear whether the 2nd installation is unsafely downloading additional stuff from the net.
