Apps are wonderful tools. They can keep you organized, balance your budget and help you lose weight. They also consume a lot of resources. If you have lots of apps running on your Mac, they could bog down what was once a fast machine.<\/p>\n
How System Lens helps<\/b><\/p>\n
As Elliott writes System Lens will help. This app lists all of the other apps running on your Mac at any time. But more importantly, System Lens shows you which apps are consuming the largest amount of your Mac\u2019s resources. The app also tells you how stressed your Mac\u2019s systems are in general.<\/p>\n
Decision time<\/b><\/p>\n
What will happen next is up to you. You could opt to close or erase some of the apps consuming the largest amount of resources on your Mac. Doing this might provide a surprising, and pleasant, boost to your Mac\u2019s speed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
