I have a script that reports on backup sessions using the accounting log, and I 
thought I was calculating the network transfer rate correctly, but I see that the 
results returned from the client are reporting very different numbers.  The formula I 
am using to figure out the speed at which data is actually being transfered when 
transmission is happening is:

xmit_kbytes / (session_seconds - mediaw_seconds - commw_seconds - idlew_seconds)

xmit_kbytes(field20) = 44016
session_seconds(field21) = 125
idlew_seconds(field22) = 0
commw_seconds(field23) = 112
mediaw_seconds(field24) = 0

my report thus shows network transfer at 3,386mb/s
but the client results say 393kb/s

I guess even after reading the manual and various postings, I still don't understand 
what commw means, exactly.  Can someone clear this up for me?
