That does the trick, but thinking about it, if i isolate analysis on specific internal networks with -F, viewing sent traffic only and hiding destination already comes pretty close to get conclusions.

about the sort order in this specific view, i notice it's not sorted by rate over the selected column. what is the sort order?

Even if you only have outgoing traffic only shown, it still sorts by the sum of incoming and outgoing, unless you hack the code as described below.

I think ideally it would sort by what you have on screen, but that requires a slightly more complicated change to the sort function.

No - but it's an easy enough change to make if you want to hack it.
  In ui.c find this bit of code:

int screen_line_bandwidth_compare(host_pair_line* aa,
host_pair_line* bb, int start_div) {
    int i;
    for(i = start_div; i < HISTORY_DIVISIONS; i++) {
        if(aa->recv[i] + aa->sent[i] != bb->recv[i] + bb->sent[i]) {
            return(aa->recv[i] + aa->sent[i] < bb->recv[i] +
bb->sent[i]);
        }
    }
    return 1;
}

and delete the "recv" part of each of the sums.  I guess it would be
nice to sort based on what's on screen, but obviously that's a bit
more involved.
