There are also dock icons for CPU usage, network usage, and disk activity. Do this by right clicking on activity monitor on your dock -> dock icon -> show memory usage. To keep a closer eye on my usage I pinned Activity Monitor to my dock and found you can right click on it and change the dock icon to a pie chart of your memory usage in real time. I am working to adjust my usage for a more stable operating system environment until I can make a switch up to a 8gb mbp this year. ![]() So my purpose in writing this post is because I have been maxing out memory usage on my macbook with 4gb in the past few months. This can be done by right clicking on the dock and using force quit or via command line with kill. Also are few widgets for the menubar and dashboard like istat pro that also assist with tracking your usage.Ī users first option when you notice a lockup or an unresponsive program is to kill it.

I highly recommend SABnzbd x CP x Boxee for automation and ease with viewing movie downloads. I have heard that Sick Beard is good for TV shows but I do not miss too many on cable with my DVR. So all I have done is added a movie I want to see to the CP want list and soon after its released its ready to play in my living room. From there my boxee box has the SANs location saved and scans for folder updates every few hours. After CP finds a movie that I added to my want list, it sends it to SABnzbd, then it moves it over to my SAN (/Volumes/My Passport). 1413.12MB instead of the maximum of 1000MB. ![]() 2775.04MB instead of theġ4:33:05 INFO "New Movie 2010 DVDSCR AC3 XViD T0XiC iNK (diff group)" is too large to be Volumes/My Passport/New Movie (2010)/New Movie (2010).avi.ġ5:00:22 INFO Quality Old: 0, New 700.ġ5:00:17 INFO Creating directory /Volumes/My Passport/New Movie (2010)ġ5:00:17 INFO Trying to find a home for: newmovie.aviġ5:00:17 INFO Retrieved metainfo: ġ4:33:27 INFO Finished search.ġ4:33:27 INFO NZB sent to SAB successfully.ġ4:33:26 INFO URL: %2Fapi-nzb-download.php%3Fid%-%26username%-%26apikey%-&cat=Moviesġ4:33:26 INFO Sending 'New Movie 2010 DVDSCR XviD PEER' to SABnzbd.ġ4:33:15 INFO Checking if ġ4:33:05 INFO "New Movie (DVDSCR) (2010)" is too large to be Screener.
