    There are a number of 'docks' available paid and free of charge. The ones I have used are stardock object dock and nexus dock. Nexus is free as is the basic stardock. Google the names and it should get you where you need to be.

    Stardock is my favorite one but it's also the biggest memory hog.

    I don't see any difference between with and without the dock running. And I have been using it on various systems from low to high performance for years.
