system tray util that reduces priority of high-cpu usage processes

There are many times when a process will hog your cpu, such as when converting audio/video files, or working with compressed archives. Because these processes completely consume the cpu, your system becomes sluggish to respond and using the computer for other tasks becomes impossible while these processes are running.Process Tamer solves this problem by identifying such these degenerate conditions and temporarily reducing the priority of the offending processes in order to allow your system to respond to other requests. Stop being a victim to an overloaded cpu - let Process Tamer keep your system responsive no matter what you re doing. You ll see a baloon tooltip in your system tray whenever Process Tamer adjusts or restores the priority of an application, so you ll always know what it s doing and why. There are times when you probably won t want Process Tamer to change process priorities, such as when playing games or if you are burning a cd/dvd on a slow computer; just double click its icon to toggle it on and off. now includes tons of new options and a friendly gui configuration tool.
