CLUSTER PER-BANDWIDTH-DESKTOP · 13 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-04
Per-process network monitoring tools
This cluster consists of desktop applications that track per-process or per-application network usage and provide controls such as blocking, capping, or bandwidth limits. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from, as there are too few entries before the index start, and the cluster predates the index or its members are undated. Among the members, limen-firewall leads on traction with 1 star, while the others show no star activity.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 13 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
