Feature Suggestion: Limit CPU usage
rasmnick:
I like the interface and config of ProcessTamer, but just changing the priority doesn't cut it for a stupid program that I have to use at work that was written like a DOS program in windows. It takes 100% CPU usage to sit around and wait to read a sample from the serial port. Battle Encoder Shirase limits the CPU usage, but the interface doesn't allow for more than 3 programs to limit, or a way to watch more than one program. I also have found PsSuspend, but it won't limit a process, just suspend or re-enable.
Thanks,

kartal:
have you tried process lasso?
rasmnick:
Thats interesting, but all it does that ProcessTamer doesn't is to set the affinity.

kartal:
Yep I use process lasso. I like tamer it is on my laptops but on my workhorse machine I use process lasso because I do alot of rendering and computational stuff.
Shades:
Well, I just saw that only a few days ago a new version (v3.22) was made available and that it is still free for home/personal use...
And I agree with Kartal, this piece of software is worth it's weight in gold ;)
