Batu69 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 From the developer of the popular Process Lasso Pro comes another useful tool, ParkControl Pro.ParkControl Pro is an elegantly small utility to monitor and adjust Windows CPU core parking and frequency scaling settings for each power plan. It has been shown that these power-saving mechanisms, present even in the default High Performance power plan, are detrimental to the performance of bursting CPU loads, which happen to be the most common type. This is because ramp-up time is insufficient. By disabling, or tuning down, these mechanisms, the user can achieve additional CPU performance.ParkControl Pro is packaged in an installer with a dynamically changing system tray icon to indicate core parking status. Further, it’s main window shows core parking and frequency scaling in real-time, as well as allows instant adjustments, with no reboots required.HomepageTerms and Conditions This is a 1-computer lifetime license, for noncommercial use.No free updates; if you update the program, it may turn into a trial.No free tech support.Must be downloaded, installed, and registered within 30 days.May not be resoldTechnical Details Developed by BitsumVersion is v1.0.0.4Download size is 798 KBSupports Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8/8.1, and 10 (32-bit and 64-bit)GiveawayGiveaway source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Future Soldier Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 wondeing is it for power control or performance if the first thenn its useful only for laptops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SURbit Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Just to add to the conversation of this- Downloads given for 32bit as well as 64bit. ONE free license per customer Product updates are NOT provided with free licenses Must activate within 30 days of TODAY - and, yes, limited reasonable re-installs and re-activations are allowed after that. Core Parking Disabling CPU Cores Core Parking is a sleep state (C6) supported by most newer x86 processors, and newer editions of Windows. Core Parking dynamically disables CPU cores in an effort to conserve power when idle. Disabled cores are re-enabled as the CPU load increases once again. This technology is very similar to frequency scaling, in that it seeks to throttle the CPU when idle. The problem is that Windows default power profiles are configured far too aggressively when it comes to core parking, especially on workstations (desktops and laptops). Their interest was in conserving energy, even if this meant marginally decreasing performance. A number of complex parameters control when a core should be parked, and Microsoft tuned heavily towards power savings. The core parking settings in Windows are implemented as parameters of power plans (aka power profiles). That means you can, for example, disable core parking for the High Performance power plan, but leave it enabled for other plans. And that is exactly the desired tweak for most users: only disable parking for high performance power plans. How Effective Is It? Empirical evidence shows that disabling core parking can make a real difference in system performance. There are many factors that will determine how efficacious it will be for any given system, including the CPU type, application load, and user behavior. However, we find that Windows is often over-aggressive in its core parking, resulting in excess latency as cores are unparked to accommodate bursting loads (the most common type of CPU load). In our tests, weve found AMD processors benefit most from disabling core parking. This is perhaps due to the dramatic difference in the way AMD processors share (hardware) computational resources between logical cores. Microsoft optimized for Intels HyperThreading, which has much less capable secondary cores. AMDs secondary logical cores are near full CPUs. Your results may vary, but if we didnt see real and substantial performance gains after disabling core parking, we wouldnt have authored this utility. Is It Safe? These tweaks are entirely safe for any PC that is constructed properly. The only way that they could possibly seem to cause some change in behavior, is if the PC already has overheating issues. In such an event, those issues would be seen regardless of these tweaks by simply placing a sustained high load on the CPU. How To Activate ParkControl First, you must be connected to the Internet. If any firewall attempts to block 'plActivate.exe' from connecting to 'activate.bitsum.com', be sure to let it through! This is a one time connection to validate the license.
