Tired of having to use the Terminal to get the memory/CPU usage of specific processes? With this simple application, you can graphically see the memory/CPU usage of your applications and processes. Memory Usage Getter gets a comprehensive list of open applications and their memory/CPU usage, then sorts and displays them in 3 different sections (or one big long list if you wish), making it easy to see the memory/CPU usage of your applications as well as system processes.

Memory Usage Getter allows you to visually view where you memory is being used up as well as CPU useage, similar to the Mac OS 9 "About this Macintosh" menu.

Limitations:
intermittent registration dialogs.

What's New:
If a process quits and then is launched again, the process history windows will now realize this and continue updating the graphs
If a process survives a kill, MUG now automatically force kills it
New "Kill Special" menu items with command keystrokes for fast access to killing the Dock, Dashboard, the Finder, the menu bar, Classic, and Front Row
Corrected inaccurate Dock Icon/Overall Graph Window CPU usage reporting
Double-clicking on processes in table views will now either reveal it in the Finder, open a history window for that process, or kill the process. This is a user-customizable option.
Multiple selections are now allowed in the table views, and you can perform actions on every selected item
Dashboard widgets in Tiger can now be easily distinguished in Tab and List View windows, and they correctly reveal in the Finder
Memory Usage Getter is now a universal binary and should run on Macs with Intel processors (feature untested)
A multitude of various other bug fixes and interface improvements.
