Using a box with 2 GB RAM it needs a maximum of about 300 MB. > > Windows - 4 hours on 2.2 is about right.

I only restarted it to read a new protocol list. Actually I have an uptime of ca. 20.5 days. I use a CVS version from january, 5th. regards Stephan Knabe _______________________________________________ Ntop mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listgateway.unipi.it/mailman/listinfo/ntop
