I'm looking for a tool to track GDI usage so I can get alerts when it gets close to the max. This is on Windows XP SP3.
As background, here are some related pages/apps that don't quite fit the bill:
There is a thread on this at http://forum.sysinternals.com/topic13580.html, but no real answer.
bear which is mentioned in the above article does do totals, but it it GUI based and more importantly is seems to use a lot of CPU.
Usage Monitor looks promising on the surface, but only sets limits on individual processes rather than the total.
These don't have have GDI totals:
* Process Explorer
* System Explorer
These do not have GDI:
* PsTools
* Process Viewer
* tasklist
* Task Manager
