I use the system tray icon as a general indicator, and only get concerned if it hits 100% for significant periods when I'm not expecting it, much like if the CPU meter starts hitting 100% and I'm not doing anything excessive. Once something hits my radar, I switch over to Ethereal to track down the root cause, which is how I realized it was the SqueezeBox. -- Major Hostility ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Major Hostility's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4934 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22789 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
