Using Task Manager to Monitor Applications and Processes
Task Manager monitors applications and processes.
Task Manager has the following tabs:
-
Applications tab displays what applications run. This is useful for identifying and ending unresponsive tasks. (Oracle Database does not appear as an application because it runs as a service.)
-
Processes tab displays details of the currently running processes and their resource usage. Columns are customizable.
-
Performance tab graphically displays real-time CPU and memory usage, which is useful for spotting sudden changes.
-
Networking tab graphically displays the network traffic taking place over the computer's network connections.
