Public bug reported:

when transfering a file from local to remote host via eth0, rcp shows a
transfer speed of 4MB/s.  Checking /proc/net/dev confirms a transfer
speed of about 5MB/s, and calculating the transfer rate from the ETA and
filesize confirms a transfer rate of about 4 megabytes / second.
However, when rolling the mouse over the network window of the gnome
system monitor shows a speed of about 1/5-1/10 of that reported by /proc
and rcp (or scp) of about 500 KB/s.

gnome-system-monitor version 2.28.1-1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 10.10

thanks,
Peter
