Hi!

There is one annoying thing with bwm-ng: it shows the wrong bandwidth
with its default 0.500s timeout (see:
http://people.debian.org/~naoliv/misc/bwm-ng.ogv)

When playing the video see that the default timeout is 0.500s. Note
that it keeps switching between 0 KB/s and ~1700 KB/s (this value is twice
the real bandwidth usage)
When increasing the timeout to 1s it displays the correct bandwidth.

Thank you!

Best regards,
Nelson
