Netskope Client Resource Utilization

Netskope Client is specifically engineered to function as a lightweight agent capable of running on different operating systems (OS). To carry out traffic monitoring and processing, it must utilize system resources such as CPU, memory, and device power (battery).

The following table provides guidance on the resource utilization in specific OS environments:

The values added in the table are for guidance and the actual values may slightly vary.
Operating SystemCPU Utilization (Range)Battery Utilization (Range)Disk SpaceMemoryNotes
Windows and macOS0 - 5 %Not Applicable

  • ~100 MB for installation

  • ~50 MB for Log and Configuration

Between 100 - 150 MB

  • Log retention space might vary depending on the level of logging.

  • CPU utilization may vary with the traffic processing.

Linux~45 MB for installation, log and configuration storage~0.5 %
Android, iOS, and ChromeOSNot Applicable10 - 20 %

  • iOS and Android: ~20 MB for installation

  • ChromeOS: ~35 MB for installation

  • Between 4 - 12 MB for Log and configuration storage.

  • Log retention space might vary depending on the level of logging.
  • Battery utilization can increase intermittently when the Client is processing traffic.

  • It is important to note that other external factors can affect battery life of mobile devices. For example, battery drain due to poor cellular network.

  • For mobile devices, Netskope Client uses cellular data when the device is not connected to Wifi.
