Are there any HUDS in real time that you can put on the SL Window (rather than toggling full screen and going to RL desktop) that measure performance, particularly RAM? I need to find out if I have a RAM bottleneck.

Thank you.

shift control esc

Edit: Ignore that, I read the word Mac in the first post and completely ignored it and gave you a Windows suggestion.

Huds measure inworld data. The only way you could possible even write one is to use Emerald and it does not even have that full capability yet.

If you are on a mac, just have the activity monitor display ram usage in the dock. Or put a ram monitor in the menu bar.

Thanks! You're right! It didn't work on Mac OS!

:0 maybe try menumeters??

s'really handy and sits in your main mac menubar with stats n' readouts... http://www.ragingmenace.com/software/menumeters/

other than that there's a similarly nice dashboard widget called istats. that might be nicer cuz i think it gives readouts of the top five apps at once - just checked, it's the 'processes' pref, but only reads out percentage of cpu, not a ram breakdown. might also try the activity monitor utility in os x for finer details...
