CPU Core Parking Manager 3

CPU core parking manager v3

The functionality of this application allows for you to control the number of CPU cores that need to be enabled or disabled (or you can simply enable all the cores at all times, see explanations on how it works below), also now by looking at CPU graph you can tell if the specific core is enabled or disabled. This information is also available in CPU performance tab under “Number of currently enabled cores” and “Number of currently parked cores” this is real time info, so you don’t have to press the “Refresh” button to find out the current status.

Here are some new features:

Performance graph for each core that shows if core is Active or Parked Real time counter that displays number of active vs parked cores Few more item in CPU data section Ability to check for application updates under "Help->Check for updates" menu option I've also got a few questions about the meaning of number of % next to the slider bar. And here's how it works. Let's say we have a CPU with total of 6 cores (including logical) this will be 100% of our CPU power, where each core will represent about ~ 17% (100 / 6 = 16.6 ~17).

Now for example we would like that 4 cores out of 6 will never be parked by the OS regardless of the load, in this case we set the number to 68% (17 * 4 = 68). This will tell the OS that it can only park 2 cores out of 6. Following this if we set the number to a 100% we are basically telling the OS that NONE of our CPU cores can be parked and they should function at all times with full performance (see the pictures below), and in opposite if we set the number to 0% or close to that OS will be able to park any number of cores. (don't forget to press the "Apply" button when you are setting the number). I hope this'll help explaining how it works.
