[Ntop-dev] Ntop Limits

[Cole]

Yeah.

I have read those, my question isnt about how much memory it uses. Its about the limit of the data
types or data structures if there is one? Does the data get truncated after a certain point ?

Read docs/FAQ - there are discussions about how ntop uses memory.  It's the
# of hosts, not the amount of traffic that matters for memory usage.

Hi.

Im running Ntop on FreeBSD 4.11. I wanted to know if there is a limit to the
amount of data/traffic that ntop can keep hold of. 

Like, does the amount of traffic or information or data that ntop can hold
depend on the data types used or data structures used? If Ntop was running
on a network with a few servers that generate between 6-10 terabytes of
data/traffic a day, would Ntop start to truncate the information/data
somewhere? Or is the only limitation based on the max amount of memory that
ntop is allowed to use, or that the box itself has?
