Hi Ulf,
That's yet another invaluably great addition!
:-)
Do you think it's easy to present a framework in which it is easy to
"plug in" those statistics? That way it'd be a piece of cake to add
new statistics (currently only conversations, but maybe others will
follow soon 8^)
Well, I don't have much knowledge of the similarities, as I'm relatively
new to the statistics and the tap things in general.
However, it might be possible. I will get some more info, when working
on the endpoint list, as I will see some more of the differences between
the endpoints and conversations.
One question, though. In case you're working on rather large capture
files, then it'd be probably expensive to compute *all* statistics for
a given type. In this case, I'd suggest we still present the
individual statistics as they are available today, or maybe we can
defer the computation of the Ethernet statistics until the end-user
has clicked on this tab (implying that the first tab will always have
its statistics computed, unless that tab is explanatory only)? . Maybe
I am completely wrong here and the overhead is not significant; in
that case we can get rid of this remark :)
Ronnie has answered this, and I would agree to his opinion. As I don't
plan to remove the "common" way to get the single statistic dialogs
soon, this can be discussed (and verified) later.
