      How do I figure out who is consuming all the internet bandwidth?
      Is it possible to monitor in real time how much bandwidth every single host is consuming in LAN?
      thanks in advance

          Can anyone advise which of these packages consumes the least CPU resources. I am running pfsense on a PII-350 with 128MB memory and CPU utilisation is already averaging around 60% when any significant traffic is flowing.

          I did previously try bandwidthD on another more powerful setup - but it appeared to "break" the existing traffic graphs - resulting in 503 error message when trying to view OPT1 interface - which did not recover even after uninstalling bandwidthD.

          Before trying again I would like to hear from anyone with experience of the various packages to try and determine the one to use minimal resources but still be able to give a breakdown of bandwidth use.

          TIA
