Okay, This seems to work really well. 226 33.268 seconds (measured here), 5.03 Mbytes per second 175560916 bytes received in 33.27 secs (5153.0 kB/s) The daemon used for logging never came above a top CPU usage of 1.8% at this throughput, and this value only got that high when my program was updating the mysql databases. Really the thing eating most of the CPU was the reading from disk and the ftp program. Here is the CPU in use for this little experiment: model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz Anyways, I'll be working on doing a small release package, for those who are interested in this thing. Don't expect too much from it, I hardly sat a week at this system. It was my goal to just have a convenient way of getting traffic statistics for my root server and be warned if I go over the traffic limit I have, not add as many nifty features as possible. You can do that yourself if you find my package worth of your precious attention and really want to ;) - -- Thilo Schulz My public PGP key is available at http://home.bawue.de/~arny/public_key.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA0aZFZx4hBtWQhl4RAkLVAJ4upDEUOpj267v0kLnTkg+nZpmEeACgnHkb 3LESGamMy4jjogJOIrbkBOw= =6PCt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
