Widget Performance widget for Windows

Running a lot of widgets on a big screen? This one shows what each widget costs: how often it updates, how many background requests it makes, whether it starts helper programs, and whether animations or blur keep it redrawing. Measure runs each widget on its own for a moment so you can see what it really costs, and Copy report turns it all into text you can paste into a bug report.
