On the other hand, I do not propose significant/complicated code change in my patch. Infrastructure for automatic scaling is in present code, what I propose is to add several extra steps at better defined points.
This seems reasonable. I don't have much spare capacity to work on iftop ATM, but I've put the patch in my "iftop to-do" folder for when I do.
What I would like to see more is an optional automatic scaling back, if traffic is significantly less than current scale for extended period of time.
Yes, me too. Shouldn't be that hard to implement as iftop already calculates the peak BW within the last 40s. I've put it on my to-do list, but if someone beats me to it I'll be delighted to receive a patch.
