[Bug 845775] Re: gnome system monitor shows network upload speed that is inaccurate

 

Are you sure you're using the right units? I mean are you sure it's 4MB/s and not 4Mb/s? gnome-system-monitor uses KB/s so 500KB/s =  4000Kb/s so pretty close to 4Mb/s...
If you're sure you used the right units please provide more info about your hardware ( lspci -vv ) and also please run:
apport-collect 845775 
from terminal.

Title:
  gnome system monitor shows network upload speed that is inaccurate

Status in “gnome-system-monitor” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  when transfering a file from local to remote host via eth0, rcp shows
  a transfer speed of 4MB/s.  Checking /proc/net/dev confirms a transfer
  speed of about 5MB/s, and calculating the transfer rate from the ETA
  and filesize confirms a transfer rate of about 4 megabytes / second.
  However, when rolling the mouse over the network window of the gnome
  system monitor shows a speed of about 1/5-1/10 of that reported by
  /proc and rcp (or scp) of about 500 KB/s.

  gnome-system-monitor version 2.28.1-1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 10.10

  thanks,
  Peter
