Outbound 1.0.11
Outbound 1.0.11 runs its background agent in about a third of the memory it used before and cuts the work it does on every connection, keeps app names readable in the compact Network Monitor, and shows which apps the Apple apps rule group covers.
Improved
- About a third of the memory in the background (354 MB → 121 MB on our test Mac): the menu bar meter is drawn without a graphics cache that held about 190 MB for as long as Outbound ran.
- Less CPU while traffic flows: Review sends its list to the window when connections arrive or leave, not on every repeat of a known one, and the menu bar’s little world is recounted every few seconds instead of every second.
- A lighter launch: saved history is read in small batches instead of a whole day at once (peak 711 MB → 426 MB on a busy day).
- The compact Network Monitor keeps app names readable: Sent and Received share one column, Last Seen steps aside on the narrowest window, and the map’s location count shortens instead of running under the map controls.
- Rules › Apple apps lists the apps it covers on your Mac, with their icons.
Fixed
- The App / Destination column title no longer wraps one letter per line in a narrow window.
- Built-in rules say “Built in” instead of showing 1 January 2001 as their creation date.
- A rule list with one rule says “1 rule”.
