There was a problem hiding this comment.
Cool feature, thanks!
A few ideas:
- Maybe it makes sense to introduce a toggle switch, to enable/disable this feature entirely?
- The CPS number is computed without synchronization, while
clickCountis mutated on a background queue. So this is rather saying "Maybe the next click will happen" instead of "this many clicks have happened", right?
Maybe we can introduce a privateclickQueuehere and dispatch each timer tick onto that queue? So we do the limit check, send mouse events, increment click count and compute the measured CPS on that queue and only send UI updates back to main thread.. - Did you think about throttling the menu bar updates? Because I can imagine that updating the title every click is kind of expensive?

🎯 Overview
Displays the live Clicks Per Second score next to the menubar icon while the auto-clicker is running. The score clears automatically when the clicker stops.
📐 Formula
Same cumulative-average approach used by cpstest.org. The value starts high on the first tick and converges smoothly — e.g.
1.03 → 5.48 → 9.97 → 10.02.🔧 Changes
