When using any interface device other than eth0, my network usage graphs indicate that I get petabyte/s transfer speeds. I checked, and I'm not downloading the internet every few seconds, so some averaging must be off. Here is one example config and /proc/net/dev output. I'd be happy to dig up more info if needed.
I'm using network interface device names other than eth0 and I've never experienced something like this.
Can you, please, check in /var/log/monitorix to see if there are some error messages that could help us a bit?
There were plenty of error messages, but the only ones involving the "net" component that I saw were
ERROR: while updating /var/lib/monitorix/net.rrd: could not lock RRD
This problem is occurring on several machines, and most of them have very long uptimes. Rebooting one of the machines seems to have fixed the issue for now, so I'll try that and let you know if/when it comes back.

Looks like you have more than one instance of Monitorix running in your system.
Please, check it and let me know.

You are correct. Killing the extra processes fixed the problem.
OK, thanks.
