Can you expand on this? Is the difference between counted and real traffic random, or a roughly equal (or proportional) overhead for each server? Is the difference so significant that one cannot take it into account as part of the charging structure?
I did some research on this topic a while ago. The traffic Apache measures (based on filesize) can be 10 to 50% smaller than the traffic the router measures. Ofcourse this depends on the filesize, packetsize etc. Mark Lastdrager Pine Internet -- email: mark@lastdrager.nl :: ML1400-RIPE :: tel. +31-70-3111010 http://www.pine.nl :: RIPE RegID nl.pine :: fax. +31-70-3111011 PGP key ID 92BB81D1 :: Dutch security news @ http://security.nl Today's excuse: the router thinks its a printer.
