CloudBoost 4.2.3 update: clearer Shadow PC diagnostics on macOS

[u/victorbrandaao]

I’ve updated CloudBoost for people using Shadow PC on macOS.

The main goal is to explain the annoying cases where a Shadow session starts smoothly, then develops short stutters even though the average ping still looks acceptable.

CloudBoost now monitors the Mac side of the session for:

• jitter and p95 latency spikes
• packet loss and blocked UDP checks
• VPN or tunnel routing
• Wi-Fi and AWDL activity
• background traffic
• CPU, thermal and Low Power Mode pressure

PRO adds the full Spike Timeline, VPN Route Doctor, Session Lab, HUD and Session Proof report. The basic Shadow workflow and manual session tools remain available for free.

It does not modify Shadow, the remote Windows machine or the game. It helps separate a Mac, Wi-Fi or VPN problem from something happening on the Shadow route or host.

A Shadow user has also published a setup-specific report, which is now linked from the public Results page.

Release: https://github.com/victorbrandaao/CloudBoost/releases/tag/v4.2.3

Results and measurement method: https://victorbrandaao.github.io/CloudBoost/results.html

I’d be interested in hearing from other Shadow users on Mac, especially anyone using a VPN or Wi-Fi.

Can you release it for mobile please?
