Every now and then I see a giant spike in bytes transferred (>100Gig in 5 minutes) as reported by Analog running on my Apache logs. However, the router, which also logs bytes transferred, shows normal traffic levels.

These spikes appear to be related to thousands of requests for the same file from a single host, all within a few minutes of each other and all with different numbers of bytes transferred and a 206 status code.

This isn't really an Analog problem, as Analog is simply reporting what Apache says in it's logs, but it is still making my Analog reports be dramatically wrong.

Does anyone have any idea why Apache would be logging bytes transferred that are so far off of reality?

Thanks
Jason

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
