Measuring bytes of packet sent from python application

2009-01-05 Thread Kangkook Jee 

Hi, all

I'd like to measure number of bytes sent(or recv'd) from my python
application. Does anyone have any idea how can I achieve this?

I tried to do this by tracing some socket calls (send, sendto, sendAll) 
 using 'metaclass' but I could find exactly place that I can put this in.



My application runs some number of protocols (bittorrent, xmlrpc ..) in
it and will be measured for a couple of hours.

Thanks a lot for your help, in advance

A good universal tool on the Linux platform is tcpdump. It takes some
learning, but is very useful for this kind of task. You can use a tool
like ethereal to visualize the data that tcpdump gathers.


Thanks a lot Jonathan

That seems like a good solution for my issue but how can I distinguish 
traffics from my application to others?


I'm still struggling to solve it within python process since it looks 
cleaner but it doesn't seems to be easy at all.
