- Microsoft Vice President Scott Hanselman released gputaskman; he is also a Member of Technical Staff.
- The app provides detailed GPU-use readings for individual models and processes, rather than only an overall figure.
- It shows whether LLMs, browsers, desktop compositors, or renderers are using GPU memory.
- GitHub offers a portable download of the app that requires no installation.
“Task Manager says ‘15 GB used.’ This tries to answer: by what? Model weights? KV cache? Your browser? The desktop compositor? And why is so much GPU memory in system RAM?”— Scott Hanselman, Microsoft engineer and creator of gputaskman, describing the questions the app aims to answer about GPU memory usage.

- Windows 11 is intended to keep up to 2 GiB more active data in memory on 8-GiB PCs.
- Microsoft's reported multitasking gain of up to 40 percent comes from tests using one HP Omnibook 3 and two 25H2 builds.
- Microsoft cites up to 20 percent shorter response times, based on telemetry from real Windows 11 devices with 8 GiB of RAM.
- Independent tests on Intel and AMD devices are lacking; Microsoft's percentages do not necessarily apply to every notebook with 8 GiB of RAM.
Our goal is for your 8GB PC to feel like it keeps getting better.— Pavan Davuluri, head of Windows, on the Windows Experience Blog.
