Say I click on the interface (tcp://*:5556). If I then click the tab for "historical activity", I see a graph of how much was being used over a period of time, which is what I expect. But next to that is "Protocols". I'd love to keep that data somehow, too. Also, you added a magnifying glass next to each protocol. If I click that, I only get taken to "active flows". I have some that have many TB of data over time. I'd like to be able to go back and see what was using that data and when.
For example, we have a minor bit of slowness in our development network around 2:00pm every day. I can't figure out exactly how to find what was using all the bandwidth during that time without using a historical interface, but unfortunately that takes up so much data that it's basically unusable for me. Thanks!

What would you like to save exactly? We have started to add ElasticSearch support in ntopng, and this is another option to use instead of SQlite. But all these are experiments until we find a solution we like. Does anyone has a suggestion perhaps?

It looks like SQLite (which I am not familiar with, unfortunately) is just a series of plain text files. Is there any way to compress this or just store the overall usage data? Without historical data, this utility isn't nearly as useful. Thanks for anyone who can offer a suggestion!
