Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 8647] SUM(tcp.time_delta)tcp.time_delta incorrect

Comment # 4 on bug 8647 from
OK, so what's going on is that the tshark display filter (-R or -Y depending on
your version) doesn't affect the packets passed to the statistics tap; it only
affects the packets displayed (of which there are none anyways because of -q).

What you want is to build the filter into the statistics tap instead. The
following works for me:

$ tshark -r ~/Downloads/file-copy.pcap -qz
"io,stat,0,SUM(tcp.time_delta)tcp.time_delta and tcp.srcport==445"

These results looks like they match what you were expecting. Does this solve
the problem?

P.S. If this is the answer then I would welcome a suggestion on where we should
improve the documentation for it. I haven't spent much time on this particular
feature, but I admit it seems confusing...
