Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Statistics data-rate units

Hi everyone, I'm new to the list.

I am measuring data rates using Wireshark 3.2.2 and I believe some of the data-rate units at "Statitstics" are non-consistent with my tests. I am not 100% sure, I might be missing something, so I would like someone else to have a look.

My believe is that the columns named "Bits/s" at tables
Statistics -> Conversations
Statistics -> Protocol Hierarchy
do not measure Bits/s but a different data-rate unit, actually I believe they measure kilobit per second.

I believe
Statistics -> I/O Graph
gives the correct data-rate.

Values at I/O Graph are around 1000 times higher than those at Conversations and Protocol Hierarchy.

Can anyone have a look and let me know if I am right?

If I am, where can I ask to fix it? I am not a developer but I'd be happy to open an issue or whatever is needed.

Please let me know if you think this question should go to a different Wireshark list and I will subscribe to it to ask my question.

Cheers!
