Note that you can see what statistics are being reported for your system with /opt/local/libexec/mpstats show You may want to direct the output to a file or text editor! For my system, there are about 750 active ports and over 2,700 inactive ports. For example, all 13 versions of qt5x-qtbase are included in the inactive ports. My submission totals about 3,500 lines or 203,000 bytes. I see no reason to report inactive ports. Is there some value to this information that I am missing? Presumably, eliminating the inactive ports would cut down the data traffic to about 43 kB. If so, I think weekly reporting would be quite feasible. The “OS” section for my system is: "os": { "macports_version": "2.5.4", "osx_version": "10.10", "os_arch": "i386", "os_platform": "darwin", "build_arch": "x86_64", "gcc_version": "none", "xcode_version": "7.2.1" }, The gcc-version is no longer relevant.
