Did you come across a situation where you know that a particular program or process on your computer is taking too much memory, and slowing down your computer immensely? Ever wanted to suspend this process for a little bit to increase the efficiency of computer? Well, Now you can.
Polaris Software has come up with an application that lets you suspend any process you want. The beauty of this application is that it does not terminate the process and therefore, does not result in any loss of data. When you need the process running again, you can do so just with a single mouse click. Download “Free Process Freezer” now.

Here is a nice little application that I stumbled across when browsing CodePlex today, Taskbar meters. Taskbar Meters adds two(soon to be three) meters into your Windows7 taskbar that keep you informed of your CPU and memory usage. A third meter for hard drive usage may soon be added as well. The main advantage that I see is that you dont need to open windows task manager or any other 3rd part software to see your system usage data. You can easily identify the usage by glancing over the windows taskbar and visually seeing the level of usage of each CPU and memory.
