Started playing around with NTop the other day. Had it watching just the local interface (fxp0) for testing. Its not a very powerful machine only a PII. As a test I threw 15Megs of traffic at it on another interface (fxp1) and it completely bogged the machine down, dropping packets faster than a bucket full of holes, which I sorta expected anyway. So question is what is a good machine spec wise to be able to run Ntop at about 100Megs of traffic? I guess faster is better and as much ram as I can stuff into it. Anyone else running Ntop? What kind of machine vs how much traffic are you looking at? thanks, Keith
