Process Lasso (x32) 3.80.4

(February 4, 2010)

Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008, Windows (All) / Shareware; $7.95 / 34,730 downloads

Process Lasso improves system performance, responsiveness, and stability during high loads through dynamic adjustments to process priority classes. It can also automatically terminate undesired processes, apply default priorities and CPU affinities to processes, limit the number of instances a process can have, and log all processes. It is not a task manager replacement, but does have task manager like capabilities to compliment its primary functions.

Process Lasso is free for home and academic use, though there are some tolerable nags for the Pro build shown after the product has been installed an extended period. The free build is not in any way crippled. Commercial use requires purchase within 14 days of evaluation. Despite being free for home use, it is now classified as Shareware to prevent any user confusion or complaints.

    I've always preferred Process Tamer to Process Lasso... But I just tried version 3.80 and I can say it has improved a lot lately. Love the new additions (Game Mode) and the noticeable better system responsiveness (especially on my older PC).

    Great utility. My old system would be unbearable to use without it!

    Nahh you did nothing wrong, I can be an ass, sry for my bad behavior.

    I'll get of your back, and wish you and your family a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.

    4 stars, don't want to skew the score, more than I already has done.

    Once again, please accept my sincere apology.

    Basically, Process Lasso is a VERY VERY light weighted software. I have tried several other similar softwares, but they really cannot achieve what Process Lasso can achieve. Basically, Foreground Process Thread Priority Boost is unique, and cannot be found in other similar type of softwares. One software called "Process Priority Master" which claims itself to be the best, I have tried it myself but it's nothing but just a bloatware, a real example of bloatware. It takes like 30%+ CPU in the background all the time !!! Jeremy never claims his softwares are the best, because Jeremy has a good and professional attitude, which we all should learn from him. I can tell, no other similar softwares up to the current date, performs better than Process Lasso.

    This software is NOT crippleware. 99% of the features in the Pro build are also in the free build. If you take the time to look, you will see this is true.

    This program is crippleware. I would rather use a lesser program than a crippled program.

    to your post us3r:
    you rated the software with two and speak as if you never tried the software for yourself - talking only about that the price is too high for you to effort and not even mention a free alternative (cause there is no). I really wonder what those commends should cause, why and for what ?

    This program doesn't offer much more than similar tools which are completely free, yet author want almost 20$ for a copy whether you are commercial user or home user or student. The life time license doesn't speak to me since I remember the development of these application stopped like for two years around version 2.0.
