v10.6 [Jul 30, 2022]
Done many small performance and stability improvements since March and are releasing it with one single update as NetBalancer v10.6.
v10.2 [Sep 25, 2020]
NetBalancer v10.2 adds back the status bar from the old UI with all functionality.
v9.8.6 [Dec 7, 2016]
- Adds Virtual Connections.
- Improved memory consumption.
- Bug fixes.
v9.4.1.905 [Jun 23, 2016]
The new monitoring functionality introduced with v9.2 and v9.3 is great (we hope) but it has a problem: on computers with a lot of network activity the database file where NetBalancer stores the traffic stats (C:\ProgramData\SeriousBit\NetBalancer\netbalancer.db) grows very fast up to hundreds of MB. This growth stops after about two weeks when the automatic data aggregation kicks-in and the older data gets compacted.
Still for computers with small disks even 100MB might be unacceptable so in version 9.4 we added a new setting that tells how much data should be stored in the first place, named "Initial Traffic Resolution" and located in Menu>Edit>Settings>Database.
By default this setting is set to 1 second, as it was in previous versions, so nothing changes if the user is fine spending some more megabytes for monitoring.
v9.2.7 [Nov 20, 2015]
The first improvement is a new advanced traffic data collection performed by NetBalancer in background (in a SQLite database file) and the new "Traffic Totals" statistics available in Menu>Statistics>Totals.
v9.14.3 [Nov 13, 2015]
Fixed a security issue when the wrong netsh.exe could be called if placed inside NetBalancer's directory.
Fixed various minor bugs.
v8.9.7 [Sep 16, 2015]
Version 8.9 is all about performance improvements: we've tried to minimize all expensive operations in NetBalancer (like system calls, locks, context changes etc.) and add as much batch processing as possible.
So now NetBalancer uses up to 50% less CPU on traffic intensive computers, keeping the same low latency as before.
