@aufkrawall aufkrawall released this 14 Sep 12:59

A feature and usability release: Private Working Set as the primary per-process memory metric (matching native Windows Task Manager), explicit RAM telemetry labeling and optional metrics (Working Set, Peak Working Set, Shared Working Set, Commit size), interactive header tooltips, crash dump progress modal with instant cancellation, and hotkey reliability improvements.

Process Memory Telemetry

  • Private Working Set by default. Aligned per-process resident memory telemetry to Private Working Set (SYSTEM_PROCESS_INFORMATION.WorkingSetPrivateSize) across Windows, matching the default "Memory" column in native Windows 11 Task Manager.
  • Explicit memory labeling. The Details column picker and header explicitly name the metric Memory (active private working set) (Arbeitsspeicher (aktiver privater Arbeitssatz)), eliminating confusion between private resident pages and total working set.
  • Comprehensive RAM metrics in Details. Added Memory (shared working set) (working_set - private_working_set) alongside Working set (memory), Peak working set (memory), and Commit size, allowing users to customize and view all memory dimensions side-by-side.
  • Process Properties memory stats. The Statistics tab now displays all five memory metrics: Private working set, Working set, Shared working set, Peak working set, and Commit size.
  • Interactive header tooltips. Hovering over table column headers now displays concise, localized definitions explaining the telemetry and guiding users to additional metrics in Details.

Crash Dump Generation

  • Real-time dump progress modal. Creating large memory dumps (e.g. Full dumps of multi-gigabyte processes) now displays an egui progress dialog showing percentage, bytes written vs. estimated total, MB/s write throughput, and elapsed time.
  • Instant cancellation. Dumps can be cancelled immediately at any point via the Cancel button or Escape key using MINIDUMP_CALLBACK_INFORMATION's CancelCallback (< 1 ms latency). Partial dumps are cleanly deleted from disk.

Hotkey & Tray Fixes

  • Ctrl+Shift+Esc tray reliability. Fixed an issue where releasing Ctrl or Shift before Escape while running in the system tray could leave the hotkey down-state debounced, requiring a second press to open TaskMan.
