Got a quick question concerning the performance meters on my sidebar.
Running Vista HP, dual core, 4 g/ram.
I have two meters on my side bar. One shows real time activity, fluctuates considerably when I open a different web page, second meter pretty much stays constant and when there is a change in the indicator, it's usually gradual.
Right now the second meter is showing approx. 50% usage. I can go in and run MBAM and SAS and the meter will drop back to the low 30% usage. There's usually nothing in either of these logs except a few cookies, usually around 4 or 5.
My question, why would clearing cookies make the usage meter drop so much? Doesn't seem that it would make that large of a difference in usage with just a few cookies.
Just a quirky questin, nothing I'm worried about..
Thanks
