man ntop:
--disable-instantsessionpurge
ntop sets completed sessions as 'timed out' and then purge them
almost instantly, which is not the behavior you might
expect from the discussions about purge timeouts. This switch
makes ntop respect the timeouts for completed sessions.
It is NOT the default because a busy web server may have 100s or
1000s of completed sessions and this would significantly
increase the amount of memory ntop uses.
Without this, if you're looking at web traffic there typically aren't any
open sessions - only the long lived ones such as FTP and SSH might be seen.
But read docs/FAQ - it will cost memory!

Subject: [Ntop-dev] TCP Sessions
Hi all,
I have done three installations on different servers with same
configuration.
Two of them (heavy traffic passes through them) dont show any TCP sessions
at all. (Only a couple of times I managed to see some sessions for a while).
The Netnetstat.html page also shows "No Data To Display Yet" (while there
should be!).
One of them (light traffic) shows TCP sessions sucessfully.
The --disable-sessions switch isnt enforced on any of them.
Any hint at what the problem would be?
Thanks
Regards
Farhan Ali Khan
