軟件簡介
Yale 是個很簡單的小工具，主要功能是讓我們在桌面右下角的系統列上方顯示一個小小窗口，實時監控目前的網絡上傳、下載流量，并可顯示硬盤存取的吞吐量與 CPU 的實時負載。如果你有用自己的計算機架站或常常用來大量下載文件或 P2P，可以透過這個小工具得知目前計算機與網絡的運作狀態，避免某些程序太耗資源或占用太多流量而造成其他軟件或工作的正常運作。
Yale 可以支持計算機中全部的網絡聯機裝置（如果你有安裝多張網絡卡或虛擬網卡的話），監控流量時亦可依照不同通訊協議顯示個別的網絡帶寬占用數字。譬如說它會把 HTTP、HTTPS、SSH、FTP 或 Shared Network Folder（局域網絡共享文件夾）...等不同網絡聯機方式的帶寬占用量分別標示，讓我們輕松得知到底是什么東西吃掉網絡帶寬。
Yale is an application that lets you see the network adaptor usage.
The window shows the bandwidth usage of all network adapters. Separated into up and down link. Additional the cpu usage and disk transfer rate is shown.
You can click onto the network adapter entries. This will expand them and show you the bandwidth for every used protocol.
You can place a 'port-numbers.txt' file into the same directory as 'Yale.exe' to extent the know protocols. The format is the usual rfc format.
Please note that a expanded network adapter reduces your network speed since every network packet is parsed by Yale.
