I'm trying to monitor the bandwith I'm using, and am logging the Network
Interface. It indicates the throughput is way higher than a 100 Mbps
ethernet adapter could ever do...
The system has an Intel Pro 100 VE ethernet adapter (100 Mbps) running at
100 full duplex.

The counters indicate a maximum throughput of 439,936 Bytes per second.
That would be 439 megabytes per second - don't think so.
The scale is .0001, which I assume is for the graph. Even using this to try
to get the number, that would be 43.99 Bytes/s, or only .0429 MB/s (.343
megabits per second). That's way too low, it must be using more than that.

Any ideas??
TIA,
Scott M.
