[8.30GA] Why can't we get correct bandwidth totals?

Recently my ISP instituted bandwidth caps :mad::mad: so I have been keeping an eye on the total bandwidth in weekly reports. However there are large discrepancies in the bandwidth usage in different parts of the report. Total bandwidth used should be trivial to calculate for astaro but for some reason its not. Hoping this is fixed in v9 and I don't have to run my own mrtg server for this:(

Here are a few pictures of my reports from home astaro. The first two are from the same weekly report and the third one is the daily reports for the whole week. Notice the difference between traffic processed and total traffic for top 10 services in the weekly report (screenshot 1&2). Lets assume that some of that traffic was blocked so there is a difference. Now, if you add all the daily reports for the week (screenshot 3) you get close to the number in the second screenshot. Which number is correct? Probably the one in the second screenshot but I am not too comfortable relying on any of the numbers at this time. Even the connections handled are different. If you add all the connections handled in daily reports (screenshot3) and compare to the weekly report the numbers are off by atleast a few thousand:confused:

Regards
Bill
