Is your System Usage window always open?

So is your System Usage window always open or hidden when you work?

I have it open at all times and I don't know if that is a good idea: when a plugin makes the meters go crazy because it's such a CPU hog, it just pisses me off and I remove it immediately.

I think I am addicted to the System Usage window, I cannot work without it but it mostly drives me crazy when I see those meters struggle hehe...

Now I could just hide it but I like to know when my system is suffering.

How do you guys and gals feel about your relationship with the System Usage window?
