1. Space Sniffer

SpaceSniffer is a freeWare (donations are welcome) and portable tool application that lets you understand how folders and files are structured on your disks.

2. Process Lasso

Process Lasso is a unique new technology that will, amongst other things, improve your PC’s responsiveness and stability. Windows, by design, allows programs to monopolize your CPU without restraint — leading to freezes and hangs. Process Lasso’s ProBalance (Process Balance) technology intelligently adjusts the priority of running programs so that badly behaved or overly active processes won’t interfere with your ability to use the computer!

Because Reading/Writing are processed with no OS cache at all, other applications aren’t easy to become heavy. It can bring out Reading/Writing performance that is close to device limit. Include/Exclude Filter (UNIX Wildcard style) can be specified. It runs lightly, because MFC is not used. (made by Win32 API and C Runtime only). You can modify this software, because all source codes have been opened to the public in the BSD license.
