• scale, opacity, and color-theme presets
• native settings panel with persistent configuration
• matching dependency-free HTML/CSS/JavaScript implementation
• repeatable CPU and memory benchmark tooling

Measured performance

On the development test system, MinimalClock added approximately:

• seconds hidden: +0.0057 percentage points CPU and +2.17 MB working set

The measurements are specific to one machine and are included as evidence rather than universal requirements.
