For Vista and 7 users: found a very useful free sidebar gadget. It shows the most resource-heavy processes in real time. Can be downloaded here.

Jump to PostBetter than Taskmgr? Vista already has a very prolific program that is already installed.
And even has a cpu gadget pre-installed as well... wonders will never cease, lol. But I guess some ppl just like the novelty of downloading stuff :D

In Vista they seemed to. In Win7 that memory usage has been massively reduced, and flipping the default to the x64 "sidebar" process helps even more (of course if you are running x64 Win7).
I agree Task Manager …
