Gathering Data in the Background - PeterRyder/Check-Up GitHub Wiki

Gathering Data

Data can be gathered in one of two ways

  • Foreground
  • Background

Foreground

  • Shows a pretty graph of any combination of CPU, Memory, Networking, or Disk IO
  • Metrics such as total time to gather data as well as time between gathering data can be adjusted
  • These options are in the properties window

Background

  • Gathers data in the background in a highly efficient manner
  • Outputs the data to a CSV file located in the data folder of the current working directory of the executable
  • The CSV filename is Data-[year]-[month]-[day].csv
  • Currently CPU and Memory are the only two data points gathered for each process
  • This is still very much a work in progress
