Field notes
Nocturne samples six system metrics once per second and ranks the processes behind them, with particular emphasis on Windows' per-process GPU counters. Its overlay is a click-through, always-on-top window that can sit above fullscreen-borderless games and remember its position per display. The page identifies a 1.0 MB single-file distribution, zero installers, zero network calls, MIT licensing, and source-code access.
