Hey Angelclaw!

Thanks for getting in touch - all very good questions!

Which version of PingPlotter are you running? If you'd like, you can head to Help -> Email PingPlotter Support and send us an email from there. We'll take a look at it and tell you what we think on that CPU usage! Please note, however - that 25% is of one core (it seems that you may have already identified this).

I do think that purchasing an SSD would always help with performance-related things. I, personally, was running an HDD and noticed that PingPlotter didn't perform nearly as well as the SSD that I'm running now. If you're debating and have other reasons besides just PingPlotter to go for a SSD, I'd say go for it.

Right now, there is no command line parameter to start different processes using different config folders - how would you like to see this done? If you want to let me know what you'd like to see out of this parameter, I'd love to talk to my team about getting something configured for you!

Let me know in the meantime if you have any other questions!
