    • Service data displayed in a new pop-out panel
    • Sorted port response time chart

Bug fixes

  • Make M/Monit less strict when handling SMTP multi-line responses. Thanks to Barynin Konstantin for letting us know.
  • Fix crash during mmonit start on FreeBSD-8.x
  • Workaround libpthread bug in OS X which caused one CPU core to max out and M/Monit to become unresponsive if run in background mode. M/Monit now works fine in daemon mode on OS X.
  • Fixed infrequent connection close. In some situations M/Monit could drop connections in mid-communication if the client was "slow" to respond.
