I've been trying both Argus and nprobe+fastbit recently. Fastbit
databases do seem very fast, but the querying tools aren't as easy to
use as in Argus yet. (I'm not quite comparing like with like though, as
Argus is also set to store 128 bytes of user data for each flow logged.)

Best Wishes,
Chris
