[Bug report] `Accumulated` mode stats double the actual value #19

Closed CatEricka closed 11 months ago

CatEricka commented 1 year ago

Expected Behavior:

Update interval set to 1, Average mode and Accumulated mode should show the same value. (for obvious math reasons)

Current Behavior

The Accumulated mode shows twice the value shown by the Average mode.

Possible Solution

Merge #15

Hi @CatEricka You are correct in that Average has a mathematical formula that averages out the bandwidth and that, as we discussed in other trackers, is implemented. The Accumulated option is not the same as average and has a alternative formula, hence the different results. With help from your input i added a full explanation in the 'info' section of the general settings page, hopefully that should resolve any confusion on a user. I'm going to set this as closed but message if I've got something wrong here.

Ta.
