MasterGauges is a screen saver that monitors your computer's three most important system parameters while the screen saver is active. It displays an analog clock along with gauges (similar to a car dashboard) that monitor the amount of hard disk space used, the real memory used, and the CPU utilization. When the needle approaches the red zone of the gauge, there is cause for concern. It has user-definable alarm points which let you define the alarm values.As a screen saver, it can monitor the background activity of your workstation or server that you can check with a single glance. You can even monitor your own workstation as your downloading a large file, running a long process, or backing up.
