grafist

I recently tried out Grafist, a bandwidth utilization viewer that impressed me with its functionality. The software is designed to collect bandwidth utilization information for network interfaces, and stores it in four data files. What I really appreciate about Grafist is how frequently it updates this information, pulling data from the /proc/net/dev file every 15 seconds.

To use the software, simply run "grafist" from the command line. One thing to note is that the program will wait for the minute to be 0 in modula 5 before displaying the results, so keep this in mind when planning your usage. Another great feature of Grafist is that you can select your desired language at runtime by specifying it in quotes like this: "".

If you're looking to streamline your experience even further, you can add "grafist &" to /etc/rc.d/rc.local or /etc/init.d/ so that the program starts automatically when your system does.

Overall, I was very happy with my experience using Grafist. The latest release includes some great updates, including the ability to set a scaling value for graphing at install time and run time. Another standout feature is the ability to set an integer value for viewing graphs N times larger when the images are clicked.

Finally, Grafist has streamlined the user experience by allowing for the "method" parameter to be set at install time and run time. If you're looking for a reliable and feature-packed bandwidth utilization viewer, I would definitely recommend giving Grafist a try!
