There is (IMO) at least one small bug in the sFlow plugin for ntop - the
"topValue" that is used to calculate the maximum value passed-in on RRD
creation is based on 1 GbE.

40 GbE interfaces are now appearing on switches, and I believe they can
be trunked.  It may be time for that topValue to just fade away.
