It's a little buggy (e.g. slider for selecting short-break time periods doesn't work correctly), and I wish the "give me 1 minute" and "give me 5 minutes" buttons when the breaks come on were to DELAY the break, not EXTEND it (who needs that?). But overall I like it...
...EXCEPT...
BeHealthy is a RAM and CPU hog.
Time Out uses 0% CPU between breaks, and only 4.7MB of RAM.
BeHealthy uses 7.9% of CPU between breaks, and 49.3MB of RAM.
Tried to find contact info for the developer to point this out, but to no avail. Hopefully this will be resolved in future betas.

Looks like that's the best way to reach them.

And when you trigger a pause but don't wait the entire break time the working counter will not be reset so your next break will be earlier than scheduled...
But as this is only a 0.1 version I'm sure this will improve...
