Multicores CPU Graphic [v 1.30]

[Jacobus]

Hi guys. Here is an application to test your own and observe the behavior of the processor and memory during their use.
- You can save the cpu usage report to a text file;
- Pause and resume the measures at any time;
- Save an image of the chart.
- You can also change the colors in the chart and the transparency of the window.
I've provided other informative features on processes, but it will be for later. I'll do it for my personal use, but if this is useful, enjoy in.
If some of you use cores quad, I'd much like that you to tell me if it works correctly.

Very NICE!!!!!

I did something close to that a while back...

It's a CPU / Memory watcher that sit's in the system tray.

From time to time, whenever the CPU(s) activity is below xx% it free's ram.
Very useful in Vista and for programming, because i have immediate feedback of the CPU load and memory consumed.

thanks num3,
Cool your application. It's quick to be notified. I did a similar program (MemoBooster) for Windows XP. The RAM that was automatically optimized (Real-time monitoring allowed to display the window immediately when it was necessary to clean the RAM). But this is no longer necessary with Vista. For me it very well manages the RAM and I have not continued the development. It is always available for download. Xp only! Download here : MemoBooster and my website : MemoBooster on line


It seems that Multicores CPUGraph does not work with quad cores, also I've made a change to try to remedy.

Update: Final version : Support for dual cores and quad cores
Télécharger Install_cpugraph.exe

Doesn't seem to like my Dell Precision 490 with dual quad core Xeons running XP x64 with 8 Gig RAM

[Jacobus]

Thanks for feedback. I had not expected this case. How many cores have you? 8?
Have you one or two processors? (dual and quad)
I'll try to change to make it work with 8 cores, and if you want to test. I warn as soon as it is ready.

[Jacobus]

Hello, new release to try with 8 cores.
If you want to test it with your Super Dell, thank you.

[Jacobus]

New editing, I found a bug I've corrected.
If you can try and tell me that this gives.
Minimum system requirement : Windows Xp sp3

[Sabour]

nice program!,can you add for xp pro sp2 64 bit?

[Jacobus]

Thank's, It is already. You can choose your version here.

Hello Jacobus,

as I like CPU-monitoring I tested your 'oversized' program on my tiny 1.5 Ghz single core
[XP2 SP2 32]

I found your program flickering heavily (while the CPU is over 45%) when
- switching between open windows
- starting or ending other progs
- moving the GUI (CPU peeks up fully)
- using the 'transparency' ruler.

I like the possebility to choose the graph colors and the changing colors of the 'signal signs' (? green - red). Also screenshot and image-saving work fine (though a 1.5mb-bitmap only weights 33kb as 24bit-png-file ) and I appreciate very much that everything is saved withing the application-folder.
I also experienced the following: while the program is set to 'resume' , demanding a 'save log' will restart the capturing immediately though the button remains on 'resume' (releasing it just changes back to 'stop').

A further hint you might be interested in: on my OS the default fontdisplay is slightly encreased (108%), so the 'm' of 'Random' and the '9' of '....2009' (statusbar) are not displayed.

thanks for sharing ~ ~ Vera

Hi Vera. I have a little flicker on my xp sp2 but I think that it is because my processor, not very powerful. and my graphics card is not a top. I get the same flicker with any program if I move the window quickly.
I noticed the problem with "save log"and"stop" or "resume" and I will make the necessary to remedy. Thanks for the info.
For saving images, I will add the choices to the user, it will be easier.

on my OS the default fontdisplay is slightly encreased (108%),

I've not noticed it. Should I check the default font.

Here's a screenshot on my pc with xp and AMD Sempron 3000+ (800 Mhz)

I am sooo jealous....

Slight bug:

On windows 7 it says minimum OS requirements are Vista win SP1 or greater!

[Jacobus]

Thank you for feedback, I will correct it as soon as I could.
