Build from sources

You can compile everything from sources. To install sockstat into bin directory under /usr/local, run:

make install clean PREFIX=/path/to/install

To build a universal binary suitable both for x64 and M-processors:

make universal install clean

To deinstall:

make uninstall

Performance

I do not think, performance plays here any role, but anywhy: the same good old MacBook Air late 2015, idle state. Graphs lsof vs sockstat - the lower, the better.
