Sometime I like to check Task Manager just to make sure my network is working. Or at least to make sure I am fully utilizing the broadband unlimited download. Even though it is a very slow broadband, 512k, yes, not even 1M, but at full speed, theoretically I can download 5G plus of files in one full day. Of course it is not always that case, but nevertheless, usually I can get about 3 to 4G of download in just 24 hours.
At one of the night recently, I was doing my usual habit (after I offline), but found out there are a long list of numbers in the Task Manager's Networking tab. See picture:
Don't get it? Let me zoom in:
Get it? No photoshop being use here, it is being cut from print screen only using IrfanView.
By looking at the above pictures, and assume Windows 7 or the network driver didn't go cockoo, there has been ? Of xxxByte going thru the network card. Here is the calculation:
Bytes Sent or Bytes Received (about the same, I round up the last 9 numbers of least significant numbers)
= 18,446,744,073,000000000
18446744073000000000/1024=18014398508789.0625 kilobytes (KB)
18014398508789.0625/1024=17592186043.74 megabytes (MB) [round up the decimal to 2 digits only]
17592186043.74/1024=17179869.18 gigabytes (GB) [round up the decimal to 2 digits only]
17179869.18/1024=16777.21 terabytes (TB) [round up the decimal to 2 digits only]
16777.21/1024=16.38 petabytes (PT) [round up the decimal to 2 digits only]
16.38 petabytes of data has been flow in and out through the network card, how is that possible?
Is that possible? I would think it is just Windows 7 flaw or driver problem. What do you think?
