    Doesn’t MacOS phone home every time you run a new or changed executable? https://eclecticlight.co/2020/10/27/xprotect-what-do-we-know-about-it/

    Edit: might be that it phones home for each executable if last it run was more than 12 hours ago, given this: https://www.howtogeek.com/701176/does-apple-track-every-mac-app-you-run-ocsp-explained/

      Doesn’t Windows as well?

      Regardless, Windows recording literally everything I do is worse than logging the apps I open.

      This does annoy me.

      I’m working on a program that uses ctest and compiles a folder of test executables, and it takes seconds to test the first time vs hundredths of a second after.

      Yeah, a second isn’t a lot of time, but it means I can’t accurately benchmark performance easily.
