An application to monitor tasks visually.

Sample Image - ProcessStudio.jpg

Introduction

This is a process/task monitoring tool for Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 that offers an attractive alternative to the Task Manager. This application visually displays a process' CPU and Memory usage, as well as process status (e.g. Not Responding). Other facilities include:

  • Lists modules loaded against a process.
  • Hi-water marks.
  • A drill down feature that allows you to view enhanced detail on each process.

I like it, but I have the following suggestions:

1) If the list is sorted, a newly started app should be added and sorted, not added to the end of the list as it is.

2) It would be nice to have column headers, with the ability to change the sorting just by clicking on them, similar to task manager.

3) F5 should refresh the list as it does most other software.

4) I would prefer the gradient fill is a gradient over the 0-100%, not whatever the actual percentage used is. This way color as well as bar length can be quickly used to determine application reserouces in use.

5) Add the ability to auto-clear stale processes, as task manager does. I like to ability to keep them occasionally, but my default would be to clear them out as they become stale.

A side note, I've had some troubles with the application after going to full-screen mode. I can't get out of it (under NT 4.0). The app is still there, but the window doesn't appear. Strange. Works fine if I avoid this mode.
