Originally created by @adventmedia on GitHub (Sep 8, 2023).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ProxymanApp/Proxyman/issues/1764

Very heavy memory usage by ProxyMan when it has been running for a while. Streaming internet radio may be a factor.

Easy solution of course is to just quit & restart ProxyMan. I certainly don’t need it running constantly.

App version: e.g Proxyman 3.9.0
macOS version: macOS Ventura 13.5.2

Hey @adventmedia If you don't mind, can you share with me the Tools Menu -> SSL Proxying List ?

I'd like to know how many domains/clients you're decrypting HTTPS data. If it contains a Web Browser (e.g. Safari, Google Chrome, ...) it might consume a lot of memory if you're watching a Youtube video.

Your beta does appear to improve matters somewhat, memory usage is down to ~17 GB. Still a lot!
Under the SSL Proxying List I have no entries.
I should explain my use case: I am running various domains on my Mac using MAMP. In order to view/test these domains on my iPhone I am running ProxyMan and configuring my iPhone to use the proxy at e.g. MyMac.local with ProxyMan’s port 8866. That’s it pure and simple. I suspect my simplistic use of PM is a contributing factor.

has been running for a while

Just wondering: How long is it? The estimated time is okay because I'd like to reproduce it within the same period of time.

If you don't mind, can you share how many items, which are captured for 3-4 hours ?
