Description

I have noticed that the latest version [3.0 (51)] uses around 2-3% of CPU. Versions before that were using max 1% CPU with the same configuration.

It looks like this is due to the additional check for rotated log files.
How many files are you monitoring (only file geeklets) ?

  • Status changed from New to Closed
  • Resolution set to fixed

Refresh has been set to every .3s instead of .2s, this lowers a bit CPU usage and balance the effect of CPU cycles takent by the file size check (to handle log files rotation, which was not done by previous release)
