Using its concise and pleasing user interface, iPulse graphically displays the inner workings of Mac OS X on the desktop or in the dock.
The entire user interface is completely configurable so you can turn off gauges you don't want, leaving only what you are interested in for easy viewing.
Unlike other OS X system monitoring applications, iPulse has an interface that is customizable and compact, yet still remains informative. A single floating window displays all of the information you ask it to and does it beautifully.
Here are some key features of "iPulse":
Monitor numerous OS X statistics including:
· CPU Activity (single & dual)
· System load over time
· Network activity (packets in & out)
· Memory activity and usage
· Battery & wireless signal strength
· Motherboard temperature
· Network & disk peak activity indicators
· Disk usage
· Current time and date
· Supports single or dual processor Macs
· Compact, clever & fully customizable user interface
· Gauge info windows provide additional data
· Save & load custom appearances via iPulse Jackets
· Adjust iPulse's CPU usage on the fly
· View data on the desktop, in the menu bar or Dock
· Show & hide iPulse using system hotkeys
· Reports on system loads over time
