MouseTester v0.2.9
MouseTester v0.2.9
What's new in this version
- Open any past run. On the Compare page, double-click a run to load it back into the full UI — its values, ratings, score breakdown, metric band, and graphs. New runs store a compact trace so the time-series graphs reload too; older runs (recorded before this version) show the saved distribution graph.
- Fix: correct reference line when switching runs. The red target line on the Timing-Distribution graph used to keep the previous run's rate when you clicked between saved runs. It now always follows the loaded run's own target Hz.
- Lighter on your system while measuring. Reduced the app's own overhead during a capture — higher-priority capture thread, garbage-collection pauses suppressed for the measurement window, fewer lock reads, and no redundant post-capture passes. An honest measurement tool should disturb the very timing it measures as little as possible; this matters most at 8000 Hz.
A free Windows tool that measures how evenly your mouse's input is delivered to the host — honest that this is host-delivery timing, not a device polling-rate or latency claim.
Highlights
- Quick Test with a plain-language delivery score
- Advanced / Lab metrics + a live interval graph (double-click it for a labeled full-screen view)
- Compare your runs, find your stable sweet-spot rate (higher Hz isn't automatically better), and double-click any run to reopen it — values, ratings, and graphs
- Optional power-saving check / disable / restore (reversible, admin-gated)

Reports Windows host raw-input delivery timing, not physical USB/HID polling timing.
