Actually, it's called the "SystemIQ activity monitor." When this box is
checked, After Dark will notice when your system appears busy, such as heavy
disk activity, AppleTalk activity, and serial port activity. After Dark
will throttle down the animation speed of the current module to 1 frame/sec.
This was done to keep After Dark from slowing down your mac when you leave
it unattended.
