Hi,

I raised this on this list some time ago and people suggested
recompiling with 64bit to prevent an overflowing issue, which we did but
unfortunately it never solved the problem.

We're a service provider and host quite a number of dedicated server and
colo customers and do traffic reporting with pmacct and MySQL which is
queried by a web application.

For the most part these stats are accurate then all of a sudden traffic
will go through the roof for a large number of customers (usually the
customers with larger amounts of monthly transfer). When I say "through
the roof" I'm talking stats like 100 Gigabyte in a day being reported
when their real traffic was only 2 Gigabytes.

This problem is so intermittent and seems to have no pattern we just
don't know how to fix it. We'd even be happy to pay a pmacct developer
or something like that to find and fix this problem for us...

One thing I will mention is whatever causes this to happen seems to be
triggered by large continues transfers, i.e. we know it's been triggered
a number of times with customers running rsync. But when we try to
reproduce the bug we can't.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers
Mitch
