Giuseppe Cardone writes gcardone’s blog, a personal blog at gcardone.net about programming and systems. Since 2021, 5 different Hacker News readers have linked it 5 times, most often “Accurate, low-overhead per process bandwidth monitoring in 40 lines of bpftrace”. The last post was in 2021, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link this blog's posts on per-process network bandwidth monitoring on Linux, using BPF to match traffic to the app that sent it. Commenters cite it as the BPF approach to this problem.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

HN discussion> Linux is still dicey to correlate traffic with a particular app, especially if the connection is/was shortlived. This is has become a lot easier and more reliable to do now with BPF [0]. I also used the same approach to create a somewhat user-friendly TUI and web dashboard for it [1]. It is also able to hash the executable (even if it was shortlived). [0] https://www.gcardone.net/2020-07-31-per-process-bandwidth-m…
