@PrimeBuild-pc PrimeBuild-pc released this 14 Oct 16:43

Test build, not a stable release. It is published to test the new features before 1.7.7, in particular Efficiency mode on CPUs with efficiency cores (#66). The in-app updater does not offer it unless you enabled pre-release updates.

What's new

  • Efficiency mode (EcoQoS) for running processes and saved rules, with three states: Windows decides, On and Off (never throttle) (#66, #69).
  • Backups include saved process rules. Rules matching the same process apply in a predictable order, and conflicts are shown (#67).
  • Clearer interface (#68, #70):
    • Labelled side menu.
    • Processes page with Filters and Columns menus, and Priority, CPU cores and Rule cards whose pickers show the current values.
    • Undo for the last priority change.
    • Rules page that opens on process rules.
    • Settings and Tweaks laid out as Windows 11 style rows.
    • Shorter texts in all 7 languages.
  • Fix: the process counter could show more processes than the total.

Verified

  • Clean install, upgrade and uninstall in a Windows 11 VM.
  • Light and dark theme, 100% and 150% scaling.
  • 788 automated tests, including a real Windows API round trip for efficiency mode.

Not verified yet

  • The effect of efficiency mode on Intel hybrid CPUs (P-cores and E-cores). Feedback welcome in #66.
