Explore the built-in resource monitor function of Win7

Exploring the function of resource monitor in Win7, we can see it almost every day, and it's around us, every time we open the task manager to check CPU usage and memory usage, we will actually pass by with him. As long as we bow down, we will surely notice him. Www.2cto.com sometimes heard that resource monitors are part of the task manager. In fact, they are not like this. They are two independent processes, this can be confirmed in the process tag in task manager. We all know that the task manager should be taskmgr.exeand the path of the resource manager is perfmon.exe. This also means that even if we do not open the task manager, we can open it directly in the running window -- after opening the resource monitor, we will see a picture like this-this is our resource monitor, so what can we do here? As the name suggests, since it is called a resource monitor, it will certainly play a role in monitoring resources. The Resource Monitor in Win7 is divided into five TAGs: Overview, CPU, memory, disk, and network, which means we can monitor each part of the computer separately, in the overview, we can have a general understanding of the monitoring of these system resources. The first thing to say is that the monitoring of system resource consumption in the Resource Monitor is based on processes, he will tell us how many system resources each process occupies, for example, in the CPU bar in the overview -- we can learn the CPU usage ratio of each process here, and their status. We can also operate these processes directly here, not only to end the process, but to end the process tree. Here we also have a function to suspend the process than the task manager, we can suspend unnecessary processes here. Www.2cto.com is particularly convenient. In this case, we can separately filter the monitoring information of a process. You only need to check the process's front selection box and then click OK. In this way, we can have a more detailed understanding of the resources occupied by this process. How is it convenient? In addition to understanding the monitoring information in the overview, we can also get more detailed monitoring information in the other four labels. For example, the information we see at the top of the CPU tag is what we saw in the overview just now, in the following services and associated handles, we can get more detailed information about CPU, as we did just now, we can also learn about the resources occupied by a single process here. We should all know about the service. Some friends may not be very clear about the associated handle. In fact, friends with development experience know that the handle is a pointer to a pointer, here we can simply think that it represents some resources of our system, such as files and windows. You can think of it as a handle. Www.2cto.com I believe we must have encountered this situation when using the computer. When we delete a file, sometimes he will remind us that the file is in use, at this time, we certainly know which process is using some simple files, such as Word documents and images. But what if it is a partial file? At this time, we may wish to use the resource monitor we introduced today to you For a brief example, you can enter the name of the resource you want to search for in the search bar of the associated handle. Then, the resource monitor automatically searches for the process that is using the resource. Well, we will not introduce other functions of Resource Monitor to you one by one. If you are interested, you can go back and have a good look, A well-developed resource monitor can definitely give us a deeper understanding of the system. This article is from the home of Windows 7
