Hi,

We're using ATS 5.0.1 in forward proxy mode and it has been working very well for nearly a month. To keep record of the traffic and calculate the savings we're measuring RX and TX bytes from this two linux counters.

/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/rx_bytes
/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/tx_bytes

The inconsistency that we see is that from time to time we can see that traffic IN is bigger that traffic OUT, wich is a bit odd since we double checked that there is no ATS external process consuming traffic, and disabled backgroud fetch plugin. Did anyone saw this behaviour before? from my perspective it is not normal. Is there any other method to measure the traffic without this inconsistency?
Below some examples using ifstat -b command.
