Iconfactory updates iPulse

By Dave Caolo

Today the Iconfactory released an update to iPulse, its system monitoring utility. I've been using iPulse for a while now, and I find it to be very handy, especially when I'm trying to find that one pesky process that's dragging my whole machine to a slow crawl. View all sorts of useful system information like CPU usage, motherboard temperature, available disk space and a whole lot more. You can customize the application's appearance by applying one of many skins, or "jackets" from the iPulse jacket gallery ("Newt" is my favorite).

Version 2.1.3, released today, reports on CPU usage for Dashboard widgets and Java processes. iPulse can be downloaded from the Iconfactory website and costs $12.95 USD. Version 2.1.3 is a free upgrade for all registered users.
