Applications Impacting Performance

Applications Impacting Performance

A process—whether a driver, UI app, or background service—consumes CPU, memory, disk, and network resources. The average PC runs 100–200 processes, competing for these limited resources.

LDO Device Insights uses on-device AI to detect abnormal resource usage that may degrade performance or signal fleet-wide issues. It flags apps and processes causing high per-core CPU load.  This repport helps IT admins diagnose, track, and resolve device performance issues with features like snoozing, exporting, and fleet-wide filtering.

To access this report go to Device Insight > App Performance.
