Objectbar & System Resources

Hello aquasoftians !!

Just wanted to ask does object bar consume loadsa system resources ? :huh:

Naw ,, Keep it fairly simple and you will not even know its running - but different bars made by different artists could each and all run differently .

OF course it takes a lot of memory and hogs all your cpu even if you are using an Athlon64 because stardock is evil!

JUST KIDDING

With most menubar skins it pretty much doesn't take any more than the task bar. Though if you get a theme that is loaded up with complex skins and bars of course it'll take more. I use it all the time and my computer is old and it's ok.

even though the stardock fanboys wont admit it. A lot of people have major issues with objectbar.

There's times will it will run for days, very smoothly, and there are also times where your computer grinds to a halt, because for some reason or another it decides to use 99% of your CPU threads. Doesn't matter if your clicking on stuff or not.

I use it for screenshots only.. *shrug*

Ya, i just use the normal windows taskbar. If you have a decent WB/style it still looks ok.

Besides, you really don't need Objectbar on a daily basis. It really is just for screenshots and looking the 100% mac look. As long as my taskbar is skinned, along with all my apps, i'm happy enough. *shrug*

Same here, OB looks cool but really doesn't do anything to help my daily operations. The opposite is more true. Fact is the taskbar is a well designed piece fof work which is fast and functional. OB can be slow and even annoying at times though it does look cool.
