Revert usage of caffeinate on OSX #4407
Conversation
It seems caffeinate is not preventing that Bisq gets throttled resources once the OS switches to hibernate. See: bisq-network#4300 (comment)

Just tested master version again. Bisq binary has about 50 offers after a few hours hibernate. Once activated it speeds up to > 400 offers. If I start the app from the IDE/src code it seems it does not fall into hibernate. Might be that the IDE keeps it alive for debugger or that it behaves differently if run as application. |

After more testing and feedback from @ripcurlx it seems the issues happens only if run as binary and not on all OSX version. I could reproduce it always with 10.12.6. Even without going to sleep mode the inactive app got throttled and lost most offers. As we do not know which versions are affected I recommend to revert to the old sound file solution. |

I will try to get the sound file smaller and the noise level lower as well. |
Converted sound file to a 10 second mono noise with lower volume. Tested with max possible sound volume and it was hardly audible. Tested a binary built with it and I could not observe the network degradation issues. File is not 800 kb instead of 42 MB.
