We have `flow-capture' running for (looking at the `top' output) about 300
hours and pretty many flow. We used the following command:
/usr/bin/flow-cat -t "2008/02/13 14:00:00" -T "2008/02/13 14:29:59"
/usr/local/sflow/ft | customParser
to parse traffic. But the time it takes to complete the above command had
been constantly increasing.
We have copied half-hour traffic from /usr/local/sflow/ft to another
directory and have run the same command for that another
directory. The taken time was small as expected. So it appeared `flow-cat'
reads all files in all subdirs of /usr/local/sflow/ft in this case which
constantly increases the time to parse traffic. Why is that so? Isn't it
sane to only read the necessary files?
Thanks.
