Rewrote process icon extraction code

Posted on 13:54 by Unknown
Rewritten process icon retrieval code means:
  • Faster process icon retrieval times
  • Asynchronous process icon retrieval (for faster initial GUI load time). Icons will be retrieved in low priority background threads and displayed when they become available. In previous versions, I slowed the load of the icons on all systems, but now we can go 'full speed' without slowing anything down.
  • Further optimization to reduce virtual memory usage
Last night I ran into a glitch and finally quit working on it and fell asleep. Naturally, as soon as I woke up, I saw the glitch and fixed it up. Its all good now and it will be in v3.99.8 (coming soon).

I have some really neat surprises I want to unveil, but won't mention them just yet. I know competitors monitor this blog and my web site, as I often see exact replicas of what I say on some 'wanna-be' apps developed for profit (please note, I am not speaking of freeware or other legitimate apps written by people like myself). Just remember, competitors are going to be coming from every direction as people try to make a buck. I'm making SURE Process Lasso v4 represents the best Process Lasso can be. Trust me when I say it will perform better in real world environments without any user configuration changes than any previous version ... not to mention all the great new features ;).
