Probably my google search karma is very low today, given the only reference to CPU usage I could find was vague refs to softirq data, and for stats some links like: 1. http://forums.cacti.net/about36629.html 2. http://forums.cacti.net/about26714.html 3. http://people.netfilter.org/hawk/DDoS/2010-04-12__001/list.html 3 is very interesting, Jesper: how did you generate it? :) In general: is there a place I can look for netfilter stats and also for the impact it generates on the loadavg of the machine?
