I'm currently wrapping my packet counts on about a 5-7 day interval on my FreeBSD box (yes, 4+ billion packets incoming and 4+ billion outgoing). I began to wonder if there was work underway to move the network interface, ip stack, etc packet counters to 64 bits. This box has been up for 48 days under this load without difficulty, and I'd like to be able to gather stats without concern for counter wrapping... -Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
