How to show Hidden processor use in FCP?

[Chris Tomberlin]

Hold down Command-Option-Shift and select “tools” in the main menu bar. In the list that comes up, go to “internal tools” then “playback meter”. I think this not only measures processor use, but throughput in general, i.e., if you have a drive that can’t keep up it will be indicated here in the form of a stall.

have fun

It’s just under tools. No weird keyboard shortcuts neccessary for me.
