Bandwith usage/load Big Boards

Hey guys!
I am wondering about what your boards use in bandwidth?

Here is mine:

Users online while checking bandwitdh load: 350

Bandwith out: around 4.000 KBP/S
Bandwith in: around 300 KBP/S

If you wonder how it is measured search Google for a Bandwith monitor (for your linux), install it and see what you get. I used a program called iptraf. It might be already in your system.

Try

yum install iptraf

then
iptraf
"Detailed interface statistics"

I really cant understand how i get 5MBIT/S when i only got 300 or so? I dont even have enabled attachments.

What do you use to measure? Are you on linux?

5mbit/sec = 0.6mbyte/sec

If your on shared/vps hosting, it maybe reading the whole server and not your account

What program is that? Nice btw

BTW: I have found out my board hits 5MBIT sometimes during high load. Usually its around 4MBIT load.
