Great gadget! This thing has helped me nail down several rogue programs for elimination from my PC. Saying thankyou barely covers it.

Does not tell me what actually is hogging resources. Task Manager tells a different story.

Too much wasted screen area. Please make it more compact. Readability needs to be improved too.

Great idea but it doesn't show any processes.

An awesome gadget that I very often need to know which of the dozens windows I have open is misbehaving and using up resources. I only wish the font and font's color were customizable. The existing font and color scheme make it extremely difficult to read the text.

Too bad I couldn't make it work on Vista

Colour scheme makes it very difficult to read

It's very good, but it needs display options. I agree with Oswald's and Onewho's remarks, and some more sober colour options would be appreciated.

I think CPU and I/O trackers should show usage units, not placement in top )
