Concurrent transactions - ragraph question

[Rafael Barbosa]

I have being discussing the results with some colleagues here. Probably the
result I am having is flows/sec, and not the total number of flows in the
period. I believe the program counts the number of active flows in the
interval (in my case 5min) and calculating "flows/sec".

I will run with the debug option to see if I can confirm this (or not)...

Thanks for the timely reply.
