Fictional FAP Usage

[rahmrh]

I got 2 odd increases on the upload side at 16:15 and at 17:30 both around 200MB, my router did not register any actual data going out, and typically uploads for me are 20-40MB/day, so the blip is fairly significant.

Anyone else see this sort of blip? My data is below:

05/09/2008 15:45:38 665 6456
05/09/2008 16:01:01 665 6456

That's unusual. Even when uploading a file, the download usage increases a little. My FAP meter is not showing fictional upload usage like yours.

I had not though about the twist of their having to be some level of matching download to go with the upload.

On downloads I see around 1/10 upload traffic (ie 1MB upload for every 10MB of download) to service the download. I don't believe I have change my habits, almost everything I do is download, I don't do any significant uploads except to further the downloads.

I still have to wonder how many programming classes the person implementing the FAP program failed, this is not complicated stuff.

And I looked a bit further back, and there lots of weird upload spikes happening here is all spikes above 100MB from the last reading:

02/07/2008 08:17:41 462 before: 290
03/09/2008 04:17:41 723 before: 609
03/22/2008 00:18:15 572 before: 464
03/23/2008 00:17:41 589 before: 461
03/24/2008 01:17:41 594 before: 451
03/25/2008 00:17:41 607 before: 446
04/08/2008 00:16:18 497 before: 395
04/09/2008 00:16:22 504 before: 397
04/20/2008 00:16:21 557 before: 430
04/21/2008 00:16:20 557 before: 427
04/22/2008 00:33:30 557 before: 426
04/22/2008 03:31:34 610 before: 425
04/23/2008 00:16:20 742 before: 604
04/24/2008 00:16:18 743 before: 606
04/25/2008 00:16:19 743 before: 609
04/26/2008 00:16:19 743 before: 612
04/27/2008 00:31:38 743 before: 612
04/28/2008 00:16:17 743 before: 608
04/29/2008 00:16:18 743 before: 609
05/08/2008 00:30:46 765 before: 662
05/09/2008 16:15:52 848 before: 665
05/09/2008 17:30:46 1034 before: 848

Notice that a lot of the spikes are happening at the same time.

I've seen 6 of these unexplained spikes over the last couple of weeks. First on the 26th - 27th of April:

4/26/2008 19:45:01 151:800 174:1287
4/26/2008 20:00:02 296:800 174:1288

4/26/2008 20:45:01 296:800 175:1288
4/26/2008 21:00:01 441:800 175:1289

4/26/2008 21:30:01 441:800 175:1290
4/26/2008 21:45:01 586:800 175:1290

4/27/2008 12:15:02 587:797 175:1306
4/27/2008 12:30:02 732:797 175:1307

Each time the upload increased 145MB. Then again on the 7th:

5/7/2008 20:15:02 655:884 257:3119
5/7/2008 20:30:01 812:883 257:3119

5/8/2008 05:00:01 812:883 258:3128
5/8/2008 05:15:01 969:883 258:3128

This time the increase was 157MB both times.
