Sometime we may leave proxyman for long time and we may even forget it. But it is still monitoring request so we cannot be sure of consequences like crashes due to more memory usages. And it would be good to indicate how much memory we are using and how much is maximum memory is there.

My preferred location is shown in screenshot.

Probably after user buys we can remove free version on status bar and add memory usage part?

@NghiaTranUIT it can also be used to detect memory leak too without using activity monitor etc.. :)

@Saklad5 commented on GitHub (Jul 25, 2020):

RAM usage is still a major issue for Proxyman. I think it should be possible to record traffic into a file directly (possibly in ~/Library/Caches by default), rather than just by saving entire flows at once. Keeping traffic in memory means it will inevitably cause problems.

I don’t think a memory usage indicator is necessary, though. Just take care of it without the user’s involvement.
