Since getting a Mac 15 years ago it can be months between reboots.
The Mac mini 2012 i7 Quad core I run Indigo on, also Plex, DuckieTV (awesomeApp), Express VPN, Plex etc runs at about 15% CPU and would only get a reboot when an OS update demands it.
The reason I now ask is that I am running Sophos on the Mac now, never needed it before but go a deal on all my Macs so got it.
The Sophos went into alert - Device Now Vulnerable but everything was showing Green. So no idea what it wanted of me.
Anyway after a long chat with support it appears that Sophos likes to have the Mac reboot to feel 'safe'.
So I suggested could I schedule a reboot every 3 months - would that make it feel better.
Sophos support were aghast!!! Amazed I very rarely reboot it, they said for the continued good health of the machine it should be rebooted.
I suggested that may be the case with Windows but not so with Macs.
Am I correct?
