That's weird. The patch should have given this:

So I need to tweak the reporting lines a smidge.
OK, I got it.
But those numbers are MUCH more reasonable (dropped of 325 out of 616K or 0.05%).
Yeap. Looks much more like the log stats (not web stats).
It would be interesting to see the stats from textinfo.html regarding "Packet Queue"...
Received.....11761827 Processed immediately.....11761827 Queued.....0 Current queue.....0 Maximum queue.....0
The dropped by libpcap - 37,068 of 653,801 or 5.7% still seems high. But that may be packets left in libpcap's queue that ntop didn't take in time - without digging into the implementation of libpcap on the different platforms, there's no way to tell what ps_drop really means. Or it could be due to a filter expression (-B "xxx" - I don't remember if you are using one).
No filter expression on this session.
There are a few messages on the web of problems with the fxp driver - see, for example http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-bugs/2003-April/000325.html and http://news.gw.com/freebsd.stable/41069. Ring any bells?
Yeap... I have several fxp cards in the ntop server, but different releases. fxp0 (ssh/web usage) is "Intel 82558 Pro/100 Ethernet". fxp1 (current probe) is "Intel 82559 Pro/100 Ethernet". fxp2 (not used yet) is "Intel 82550 Pro/100 Ethernet". fxp3 (not used yet) is "Intel 82559 Pro/100 Ethernet".
I'll have to make a try with the 82550 one (on monday).
Look at this : http://groups.google.fr/groups?q=intel+82559+82550+newer&hl=fr&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=b3ejhn%241b24%241%40FreeBSD.csie.NCTU.edu.tw&rnum=1
