Bug Description
The system monitor nicely shows CPU usage for each core and graphs a line for each one.
It would be nice if the network history graph could do the same for each network adapter (excluding loopback).
I agree with this.
I almost always use a VPN, and it seems to me like 'Network History' is adding together the bandwidth for all interfaces. The effect of this is that it shows double the bandwidth when I am connected to VPN compared to when I am not connected. I presume it is adding both wlp58s0 and tun0 - or something to that effect.
I am using expressvpn, and speedtest.net to measure.
I would expect 'network history' to use the device associated with tun0. If anything, I would expect it to show /less/ bandwidth when connected to VPN (due to the overhead), but certainly not more.
Ideally, I'd like options - to select the interface, take the default route interface, or show them all, like in this request.
At least, it should be clear about which interface is being measured, or however else it is being calculated.
