Hi,

I've got a file with 158157 packets and I'm trying to generate
conversation and end points statistics. However, it takes a very long
time to do this.
At first it's quite fast, but as it progresses it gets slower and
slower. Is there some code with too much complexity in these
algorithms?

It's taking 10 minutes now on a K7 1200.
