PTray is a performance monitor and optimize tool for CPU and memory that stay in your windows system status bar. It display your CPU usage and free RAM in a system tray icon. Displaying two figures may sound like a good idea, but squeezing them both into an icon forces the tool to use a tiny font, so they look ugly and will be difficult to read if you’re at all short-sighted.
Click the icon, though, and you’ll see the program’s second feature, as it asks Windows to reduce the RAM use of all your applications. This isn’t as big a deal as some people claim, because if you’re running short of RAM then Windows will call the function itself, but there’s no harm in having it available. And the third PTray feature comes in its ability to configure your process priorities. This is also very basic; you have to set it up via an INI file, and the program only uses this to set priorities when it launches.
