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 --- Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Netbook 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429.4) Package: gnome-system-monitor 2.28.2-0ubuntu1 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.48-generic 2.6.38.8 Tags: natty Uname: Linux 2.6.38-11-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to natty on 2011-07-17 (54 days ago) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout fuse lpadmin plugdev sambashare To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-monitor/+bug/845775/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
