Graphics programmers: You NEED this

If you are developing games on an nVidia graphics card (who isn't?), you need NVPerfHUD. It's really nifty!

Under OGRE, you will need to get the source and modify the D3D9 RenderSystem plugin in order to use it. The easiest way is here, but the wiki has another way to do it. It seems to me that the forum method could be included in the main line OGRE code because you have to select a seperate adapter to enable it, but I am not on the OGRE team.

I am just getting started with it and I have found a major speedup already. I highly recommend getting it and trying it out.
