Configuring Live Optimization
In the following chapters, you will find out how and why you can increase the performance of your computer
by turning on TuneUp Live Optimization.
Introduction
TuneUp Live Optimization consists of two intelligent optimization methods that monitor the load your com-
puter is under in real time and can thereby intervene if necessary to avoid sudden drops in performance. Both
optimization methods work to accelerate performance - one increases the computer's response rate, the other
the speed at which programs start up - but only when necessary.
This is done by intelligently prioritizing the programs that are running. If your computer is already working at
near full capacity and you start a program, this program will start more rapidly if it is briefly assigned a higher
priority. And if a background program suddenly gets carried away and requires a particularly high amount of
computing power, it will be assigned a lower priority so that the programs you are currently using will run more
smoothly. This enables work to be carried out quickly, even at high capacity.
