Hi folks, I'm doing a lot of live capturing these days (quite unusual for me). I have a (customized) 1.8.2 build on Linux and I've been noticing that while doing a live capture with a display filter I can see the packet list "jitter" sometimes (scroll down like there are more packets and then scroll back up) and indeed sometimes I have caught the packet list showing me packets that should not pass the dfilter only to have them disappear again off the packet list a few hundred msec later. Anyone else ever noticed that or have any ideas about it? I'm in no position to track it down at the moment; at the very least hopefully this email will remind me about it later... Regards, -Jeff ps. this may be somewhat of an unfair test because my X connection to the GUI isn't the fastest so that may make the delays more perceptible.
I've never noticed anything like this before, but if I recall correctly Jakub has been doing some work on more efficiently updating the packet display - it's possible that he's already fixed this in trunk? ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
