Hi,
I must say that here to ntop sometimes core dumps when browsing (on
FreeBSD).

This MAY be linked to a bad installation I did, I'll check today.
As for the problem of ntop grabbing all CPU: it does as long as no
other process is there to take some CPU.
Tho I noticed it grabs quite some memory: 84164K when running stable.
As for the packets that does not get filtered properly, I wonder is it
is not linked to a desynchronization of threads. The same way Linux
drops packets when threads are desynch, on FreeBSD it could accept
packets without filtering them.
