-===== About ===== 
 This panel plugin offers multiple display modes (LED, gradient, fire, etc...) to show the current CPU load of the system. Various appearance options, like colors or size, are customizable. This panel plugin offers multiple display modes (LED, gradient, fire, etc...) to show the current CPU load of the system.

 +===== Highlighting of suboptimal thread placements =====
  
 +Starting with CPU Graph 1.2.0, it's possible to optionally highlight CPU usage bars corresponding to potentially suboptimal allocation of CPU cores to tasks on CPUs with SMT. The highlighting can be enabled via the "Highlight suboptimal SMT scheduling" checkbox.
  
-===== Screenshots ===== +On CPUs with SMT, CPU Graph automatically counts the number of SMT scheduling events (SMT scheduling incidents) that could have resulted in reduced performance of tasks running on the CPU. Detecting these events has a very low overhead and thus is enabled even if the "Highlight suboptimal SMT scheduling" checkbox is disabled. The number of SMT scheduling incidents and an estimate of how much they might have impacted performance is printed in the Stats tab in CPU Graph's Properties window.

-===== Getting it ===== +
-The normal (and best) way to get the CPU Graph plugin is to use the package manager or port system of your operating system.+
  
-If CPU Graph isn't available there, or if you want a different version, you can download it in source form from [[http://archive.xfce.org/src/panel-plugins/xfce4-cpugraph-plugin/]].+----
