Top 10 Processes by Memory

Post by eclectic-tech »

Displays the top 5 10 applications based on memory usage.



Includes RunCommand plugin developed by Brian :thumbup:
And Tasklist.exe (Included in skin, if not on your 'executable path'). See the code if display fails.

RunCommand, Tasklist.exe, & Sort command are utilized to create files, which are parsed by WebParser.
All necessary files are included in the rmskin.

NOW, it uses the Default illustro style fonts and dimensions.
An 'UpdateSeconds' variable is set to update the display every 5 seconds.
An activity indicator blinks on update.

EDIT (Feb 7, 2015): Updated file.
* Displays the highest memory applications showing percentage and memory use.
* The skin includes 'Tasklist.exe' and 'RunCommand' plugin.
* Gives you the ability to include/exclude processes by adding 'Filter' variables and to limit the display by memory usage.
* Some preset 'Filters' are included and instructions are in the code.
* Scroll the top line to limit the display by memory usage (5M steps). The display will auto-size based on the number of items (10 max).
Note: It takes 2 update cycles to re-create the list.

License=Creative BY-NC-SA 3.0
Version=1.02.07.2015

The included 'TasklistOption.txt' explains the option; look at [Variables] section in the code for examples.
The total memeory use is displayed as a bar meter.
The percentage of each process is displayed.

Thanks :bow:

I had been using TopProcesses plugin without issues, but decide to practice using RunCommand and see what I could come up with...

So far, so good... Just wish I could get more parameters passed through RunCommand to allow some filtering... :sly: Guess I need to practice more!

Filters can now be applied to customize the generated list; see the first post for the updated file. :)

Note: If you apply filters that result in fewer than 5 matches, the WebParser will fail, and the items will be blank. :x
EDIT: Corrected in 02/07/2015 update...

Updated file in first post.

* Update to display up to 10 processes.
* Modified RegExp with Lookahead ability to prevent failed parses.
* Percentage added for each process and total use.
* Corrected dimensions and font to match illustro skins.
* Ability to limit by memory usage (Display will automatically re-size).
