I capture off of a 20-25Mbit cable line with a dual-core AMD X2 3600+ system with 2GB RAM (1.9GHz per core). The ntop process rarely gets above 25% CPU on a single core. Most of the time it runs down in the single digits. On our T1 (similar speed CPU), 1.5-2.0Mbits of traffic eats up a measly 3-4% of one of the CPU cores. The bigger issue is that if you muck with the default settings for RRD, it seems like RRD becomes extremely fragile and will fall over frequently. Our ntop falls over at least once a day and we have a cron job that checks on it every 3 minutes and restarts it. _______________________________________________ Ntop mailing list [email protected] http://listgateway.unipi.it/mailman/listinfo/ntop
