I included the below link, to a pretty good overview review so you can see some of the things that the app can do...There is a ad-free, lite version, but if your geeky at all...spring for the paid version. Oh, and I HAVE NO AFFILIATION with this app/dev (or linked site) in any way...this program is just plain cool, and I wanted to share!...it will help identify what apps are running and consuming power, so you can deal with them appropriately...check it out

Here is the dev original thread...or one of them. Some basic insight to his thinking:

The thanks button helps!

I use OSMonitor (similar to what you posted based on the description) from the market... Shows everything you could want to know about your phone and then some, and there's no ads.
