Park Control is a small application that allows you to set the CPU 'Core Parking' for one or more energy profiles on your computer. You can use this app to shut down some unused cores of your computer when they load slowly. This way you can reduce energy consumption and heat wastage.

By default, Windows does not provide a direct way to set these parameters, so this application looks very interesting. Park Control is a tool that will be very useful for anyone, whether they know how to use it or not.

In fact, before use, a window will ask you to make a 'copy' of the energy configuration just in case something goes wrong. Even so, this application is still very useful in certain circumstances.

Core Parking is a CPU power saving feature which disables individual processor cores when your system is idle, turning them back on as activity picks up. This saves energy, but may cut performance as it takes time for cores to be reenabled.

Windows adjusts core parking settings when you choose a new power plan, but by default you're not able to see or control them yourself - and that's where ParkControl comes in.

Download and launch the program and it displays the parking settings for your current power plan. If enabled, a live graph of CPU use will show you the results: green bars represent active cores, solid grey ones are currently parked.

At a minimum, you can now disable core parking to improve performance, or enable it to save energy, click "Apply", and the graph should immediately update to show you what's happening.

If you leave core parking enabled then you can fine tune it by setting the minimum cores that must remain active at all times. On a four-core CPU, setting this to 25% is mostly about saving energy (3 out of 4 cores can be parked), while choosing 75% gives you a little more performance (only 1 core can ever be parked). Click "Apply" again to change your settings.
