Oops, I somehow sent that while composing. I was saying, nethogs will |
| 24 |
show active network activity by program, so you can see who is using |
| 25 |
network data at that moment, in a top-like fashion. Not a "how much |
| 26 |
has it used total", but a "how much is it using right now". Here's an |
| 27 |
example: |

|
| 29 |
NetHogs version 0.7.0 |

|
