[macOS] net_io_counters bytes_recv difference between psutil and Activity Monitor

[anonymous-user-3]

Summary

• OS: macOS 13.2
• Architecture: 64bit
• Psutil version: 5.9.4
• Python version: 3.10.9
• Type:

During some tests, I have noticed a huge difference between psutil.net_io_counters bytes_recv and what was shown by Activity Monitor (the other values were the same). The value of psutil was more or less 10 times lower than the one given by Activity Monitor.

Example of output:
snetio(bytes_sent=4703920128, bytes_recv=6829499392, packets_sent=19674272, packets_recv=57488056, errin=0, errout=2776, dropin=266376734946470, dropout=0)

Data sent shown by Activity Monitor seems correct : 4.70GB
But data received shown by Activity Monitor at the same moment is: 66.96GB
