Performance Monitor Allow duplicate Instance option

[aconti]

Hello, what is the meaning of this value as I am confused whether I have to enable it or not while monitoring my system.

Thank you

By default counter instances are listed by name and numerical index. This index appears after the instance name, represented by a number sign (#) and a number. This index makes it easier to monitor multiple instances, for example, when you are monitoring threads of a process.

To turn off the index display, right-click the graph, click Properties, and clear the Allow duplicate counter instances check box.
