    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
