I was thinking about graphing the network activity on the client and
server in the background using the bpf while running different processes
in the foreground to see what process is actually creating the traffic.
I think an actual graph would give me a better idea of what is going on.
Right now, I would like to assume it is a part of Gnome as was suggested
before, although, I'd rather be sure.
