One interesting nugget of information was Task Manager set to be of the high priority class, meaning that it should still run even if the rest of Windows was having troubles. Plummer believes that the current iteration of the application is not as aggressive, so it might not always appear quite so rapidly on a bogged-down system.
Other statistics to make a modern user weep include Plummer's comment that Task Manager only weighed in at approximately 85 kilobytes when fully compiled. Still obscenely chunky for engineers who back then counted every byte, but positively slimline compared to what passes for lightweight components in Windows nowadays.
Except... not quite, according to Plummer. He went on to explain that the word to denote a thin layer or membrane resonated with the idea of an electronic display to speakers of the language.
