Description
MemoryPet puts a tiny animated pet in your Chrome toolbar that speeds up or slows down based on your system's memory or CPU usage, a glanceable, oddly satisfying read on how hard your machine is working. 2.0 adds CPU tracking alongside memory, 8 new pets, a hover-able usage graph, and a way to turn the animation off entirely and just watch a live percentage badge instead.
