[Robert Roth <845775@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As the component displaying the panel load applet is the multiload
component of the gnome-applets package, I am reassigning this bug to the
gnome-applets package.

** Package changed: gnome-system-monitor (Ubuntu) => gnome-applets
(Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- gnome system monitor shows network upload speed that is inaccurate
+ multiload applet shows network upload speed that is inaccurate

Title:
  multiload applet shows network upload speed that is inaccurate

Status in “gnome-applets” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

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
