RE: [PROTEL EDA USERS]: Re: What does RSRCMTR.EXE do?

While it is true that this is not necessary on NT/2000, I have it in my
startup folder (minimized) and find it handy.

It is winnt\system32\taskmgr.exe - it is also available by hitting
ctrl-alt-del and clicking 'task manager'.

I use it to monitor CPU usage, virtual memory, etc.  I occasionally use it
to close stuck applications, as well as see who is using all the CPU time,
etc.

There was a time when P98 (or somebody) was taking a HUGE chunk of memory
for a very short period of time, causing a warning of running out of memory.
The resource meter would show the spike (if it made a plot while it
existed), but I never figured out the culprit.  I just expanded my virtual
memory file.

My understanding is that if you are running NT or W2000, you don't need a 
resource monitor.
