Limiting CPU Use with Process Lasso’s CPU Limiter

Author: Jeremy Collake
Date: 06 Sep 2019
Categories: Docs

The user creates rules telling the CPU Limiter which processes to act on, and when. When a process match exceeds a threshold, it is limited for the configured duration. Like other rules in Process Lasso, process matches can include wildcards and user names.

The 64 Core Threshold – Processor Groups on Windows

Author: Jeremy Collake
Date: 30 Aug 2018
Categories: Docs, General

TL;DR – Microsoft hacked in support for more than 64 logical CPU cores by adding ‘processor groups’. Unless an application is written to take advantage of multiple processor groups (group aware), its threads will be scheduled to only a single processor group. See our new groupextend project to enable group unaware apps to make full use […]

Process Lasso Setup Guide

Summary: Setting up Process Lasso is straightforward. Once installed, the ProBalance algorithm automatically starts enhancing system responsiveness during heavy loads. It’s uncommon for users to need to exclude processes from ProBalance because the algorithm is 1) very conservative and 2) typically does not slow down processes it affects unless there is significant CPU contention. However, […]

This is a set of PE manipulation utilities formerly bundled with PECompact. They are now a stand-alone project. Most support PE+ (PE64). PE Suite utilities even support wildcards and directory recursion. PETrim Reduce size of PE by physical realignment and/or extra-data (overlay) stripping (PE/PE+). PESubSys Set the subsystem of a PE, allowing you to change […]

Should You Disable Hyper-Threading?

Author: Jeremy Collake
Date: 02 May 2017
Categories: Tips and Tweaks

Symmetric Multi-Threading (SMT), also known as Hyper-Threading, exposes two logical CPU cores for every physical CPU core. It does this by sharing computational units of the physical CPU core between the two virtual CPU cores. If neither of the paired cores needs to use the same CPU resources, then they can run simultaneously. This allows […]
