About CPU Usage Overlay
CPU Usage Overlay is the quickest way to check your CPU usage. Simply tap the widget and a process list will be overlaid on top of your screen. This allows you to view your cpu use as you go about using your apps.
This widget is a shortcut to the "Show CPU Usage" option under Settings->Developer Settings. It works by starting the same service that Developer Settings launches. As a caveat, this widget will not work on any device that does not already support showing cpu usage.
Enjoy!
Note: This is only a widget. Therefore, you will need to go to the *Widgets* section of your launcher and drag it to your home screen in order to use it.

This is implemented as a widget; for flexibility (launching via Power Toggles or All In One Gestures), it's be better to be implemented as a Shortcut.

Great little shortcut to see what is slowing your device down without having to dig through menus to enable it.

Installed this app, and didn't get a launch button our a widget. Too bad.

Considering the fact that all this app does is enable the overlay built into the phone's original developers options, this app is nothing special. Possibly usefull for those who dont know how to enable the hidden dev options.

OK so it is not a complex app and wouldn't require much effort to dev, but I find it very useful when debugging because it is so easy to toggle

The only thing it needs is someone to describe the missing Android documentation.

What do the color bars mean, and what do each of the numbers refer to in terms of CPU usage? The overlay itself works great, stays on top of everything.

Took a chance as there were no reviews for it. Maybe the link is there somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Displaying the CPU usage is supported on the tablet though, so I just turned it on; I didn't know about that. Thanks!

Great, it's the functionality I missed, but it would be much more convenient to have a shortcut so that it could be called from another app, not only launcher. Please consider this idea.
