I got tired of looking at rows of numbers in the diagnostics page on the NSS. There's now a [graph] link on the diagnostics that takes you to a line graph of the selected diagnostics category, rendered in stunning red on white. I know you'd want to use a real graphics/math package to analyze the data, but this is useful for getting a quick visual read of what your node is doing.
I didn't use awt for the drawing and file conversion, because google has lead me to believe awt will fail on unix machines without X running, and I imagine that describes a good number of nodes in use right now, so I wrote the freenet.support.graph package which is a simple GDI for drawing lines on bitmaps and outputting them as files. It's not quite done at this point but I figured I should get feedback now that it works somewhat, things that still need to be done include: * more portable/nice file formats than windows bitmap and XBM, like png or uncompressed gif. * the ability to view more than one graph at once, superimposed or side-by-side (short of creatively arranging browser windows) * defaults that can be set in freenet.conf * a form input for the graph dimensions on the graph page * drawn alignment marks to make it easier to pick out values, only the edges are listed now * better handling of discontinuities, infinities, and NaNs -- Ben Coates _______________________________________________ devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
