To be perfectly honest, i wouldn't even bother with that kind of software. There's a reason why you never find any benchmarks on legible review sites because it does nothing and the people who typically benchmark don't bother benching it because they know this already :)

10 years ago when the difference between 20 and 30 active processes running on the system actually made a difference due to the inadequacies of system hardware, sure, it would've made a difference. Today, system processes don't bother modern systems so if you use this software to take your active processes down from ~70 to ~30 it's going to make no difference because those extra 40 processes weren't noticeably impacting on the system performance.

I'd say it really depends on the process. For most system processes, sure, but some people out there run some really funky stuff, mostly due to all the bloatware products install by default unless you specifically tell it not to. In those cases disabling background processes could really help. Of course, a better soltution would be improve your computer habits.

I use gamebooster for most of my uses.
Considering I'm still using windows Vista. Playing on DX10 for majority of my games.
Gamebooster does help when you only have 2.5 gb of ram.
Considering all things it's a plus.
Readyboost helps a little but not much.
Benchmark wise? Eh, I try that and my computer will laugh. So heh.
