Product Description:

MenuMeters is a set of CPU, memory, disk, and network monitoring tools for MacOS X. Although there are numerous other programs which do the same thing, none had quite the feature set I was looking for. Most were windows that sat in a corner or on the desktop, which are inevitably obscured by document windows on a PowerBook's small screen. Those monitors which used the menubar mostly used the NSStatusItem API, which has the annoying tendency to totally reorder my menubar on every login.

The MenuMeters monitors are true SystemUIServer plugins (also known as Menu Extras). This means they can be reordered using command-drag and remember their positions in the menubar across logins and restarts. MenuMeters is open source freeware released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

What's new in this version:

Corrects a network throughput problem on some models with Snow Leopard.

MenuMeters CommentaryYay! - Version: 1.4b4, 11/26/2009 09:40AM PST

It's hard to overestimate how useful this utility is, and the developer has responded quickly and surely with every curve ball Apple has thrown at him, this time getting it all to work in 10.6.2 and in my new iMac.

MenuMeters ReviewBack working in SL - Version: 1.4b4, 11/16/2009 12:31PM PST

Oh thank goodness this is back working! I thought since it wasn't updated previously for such a long time it would not be updated, but here we are! After 10.6 broke it, it is now working perfectly - I'm only interested in the Network display!

Thank you!

MenuMeters Troubleshooting ReportNo joy in Snow Leopard 10.6.1 on new 2.53 GHz Mac Mini... - Version: 1.4b3, 11/5/2009 02:47PM PST

This is a must-have utility! I've grown very fond of MenuMeters over the years. I would gladly pay a reasonable shareware fee for software of this high caliber.

I had no problem with MenuMeters 1.3 on my father's Core2Duo MacBook Pro under OS 10.6.1, but version 1.4b3 won't launch on my brand new 2.53 GHz Mac Mini and 10.6.1. Version 1.3 was working perfectly on my PowerBook before I migrated the account to the new Mini; however following migration 1.3 gave a message that it's not compatible with Intel CPUs. I'ill gladly share log files if the developer wants those.
