WinDirStat
Open Source: Yes
I got tired of poking around on my games drive trying to find out where all the space has gone- so I downloaded this. I fell in love instantly when it showed me several gigs worth of temporary patch files buried deep in a games install directory. :2thumbsup:Quote:
WinDirStat is a disk usage statistics viewer and cleanup tool for Microsoft Windows (all current variants).
WinDirStat reads the whole directory tree once and then presents it in three useful views:
* The directory list, which resembles the tree view of the Windows Explorer but is sorted by file/subtree size,
* The treemap, which shows the whole contents of the directory tree straight away,
* The extension list, which serves as a legend and shows statistics about the file types.
Here's a sample image of how it displays drive info:

Any free software-based keyloggers for use on my own computer that you guys know of?
First thing I thought of when you said this, was that you was asking to have a trojan on your computer. :laugh4:Quote:

No idea how it is, but there's one on Sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pykeylogger/
The installation seems amazingly complicated. is anyone familiar with python?
Nevermind, it is simple as long as you download the zip version in binary. handy little gadget, it records links clicked, characters typed and isn't caught by anti-spyware. The only problem I'm having is removing the donations screen from startup. If I was able to use the source version it wouldn't be as difficult to remove it. THanks!Quote:

Worked for me. :yes:
There is a free and a paid version. The free one should suffice in most circumstances. I can't comment about the paid version, which I do not have.

Ugh it's going to take me forever to update this. I should write something so I can copy and paste posts then throw it into XML for giggles.
I hope you do get around to updating this; this is the second most useful thread on the org, surpassed only by the babe thread. :wink2:
Thank you for the time and effort you've put into it so far!
:bow:
I have always been the sort to keep many Internet browser windows/tabs open at a time, even during those years when memory capacity and IE confined me to no more than 25 tabs before the desktop froze or crashed.
First, it was an extensive folder system of IE Favorites.
Then, it was txt files or email drafts packed with categorized and annotated links.
Then, after Chrome and 8GB of RAM let me push past 100 tabs, it was periodic browser crashes followed by tearful History archaeology to salvage what I could.
A few years ago, I adopted Chrome extensions such as Session Buddy to keep track of closed and open tabs, and that was a godsend.
Nevertheless, memory leakage would inevitably bring my OS session to 90+% physical memory usage. While not necessarily leading to lag, freezing, or crashes much of the time, I was still left with the problem of being unable to run anything other than utilities and minimally-intensive games without closing my browser first.
When I got that brand new computer a year ago with 16GB of RAM, I could comfortably run 150+ tabs and most-anything else simultaneously, but maintaining the browser (I usually keep the computer running on Standby when not in use, or Hibernate for longer periods) would eventually eat through uncommitted memory. In the end, I would still have to regularly go pruning in task managers to get respite for fresh work.
Now, for the first time in a decade of personal memory use, I asked myself: shouldn't there be something to optimize browser memory usage without obliging me to manually fiddle with memory allocations - or worse, actually compromise on my active tabs?
So I did a search and picked one of the first things I came across. A simple and undocumented tool, but it makes a tremendous difference. Where previously Chrome at 150 tabs would stabilize around 10-11GB usage, with occasional spikes to absolute ceiling depending on my activities, it now is contained at half that (i.e. 5-6 GB). This is all without Adblock or Noscript, mind you. I dropped Skyrim a month after I got my new rig because, as tedious as all the modding had been, it was even more tedious to keep my playing and my browsing largely separate. Now I can comfortably play Skyrim without special arrangements.
A good step IMO. I'll probably get around to adopting a more rigorous optimizer at some point - in a year? As for user hygiene, well...
You could close tabs when you are done with them. You don't need to read 150 odd at the same time!
I wonder how you manage 150 tabs, I would imagine you either have problems clicking them at the top (if they're all there at once) and remembering what is open in which one anyway or you'd have multiple lines cluttering most of your screen, or have to scroll left and right through the list. Whatever it is, it sounds like just using well-sorted bookmarks or quick-select options would be faster.
I'm never done. Many stay open for months before I'm done, or compromise, or give up. In terms of a Ship of Theseus, you might call this the same set of windows I had at some point in 2013 (App Data copied over during computer replacement).Quote:

On a 24" monitor, the tabs in a single window aren't uncomfortably crowded unless there are, say, more than 115. I use multiple windows at a time - minimally a second window for prurient content...Quote:

Generally, I have a good idea of what stretches of tabs are what sort of content, when I opened them, and what I need to do with them. For example, I keep my email pages, forum pages, and any other important services involving user accounts, adjacent to each other near the left edge of all the tabs.
It's not - I have the experience.Quote:
