Late yesterday I released Process Lasso v3.64.3. This version performs minor maintenance to the product. I had planned to include the display of the private working set size for processes, but this was removed at the last minute due to performance problems with the algorithm I'm using to calculate this metric. The calculation was simply taking too many CPU cycles. While it wouldn't have mattered to someone with a quad core system, I always design Process Lasso to work on the most minimal of hardware. Once I improve the performance of the calculation, I will include it in the product.
In this new version you'll notice the solicitation dialog is a bit prettier - at least I hope. The buy now button has also been replaced with a very simple rendition of 'Buy Now'. My artistic capabilities are very, very poor so I'm hoping these changes are a move in the right direction.
Now its time to focus on generating some sales, as they've been dismal the last month. I do not know why, but there was a sudden decline in sales. I suspect that with all the distractions I did not make as many updates as usual, there-by reducing the market exposure. I also had a typo in the word 'monopolizing' on the Process Lasso page that was quite prominently positioned. Such a minor error can affect the image of the company and product quite a bit. Needless to say, I was not happy to discover this mistake. However, my perfectionism aside, its much more likely that it was the lack of updates that has caused this rut ;o.
