SecuritySpy CPU usage
Authored by: outofcontrol on Jun 08, '04 09:14:39AM

Having been an Evocam user for quite some time and since I had never heard of Securityspy, I was curious what it was like. So I downloaded a copy and installed it.

The configuration is more intuitive than Evocam. Setting it up was a breeze. Like Evocam, it was running within 3 or 4 seconds of installing it.

On the downside, it costs $50. It hogged 25-35% of my CPU in normal background operation, compared to 3-6% with Evocam in the foreground or background. There appeared to be no way to customize the HTML page for *pretty* viewing by family members.

So, for me and my old 866 single Hoover, Evocam rocks. Though having auto restart would be nice on Evocam.
