Data usage: daily, weekly, monthly

What about it? I mean to have total MB (or GB) sent/received in a day, in a week and/or in a month.

@smartm0use might be in general a useful feature, but it goes a bit outside the use case of this tool, which wants (for now..) to stay small and compact.

As I wrote here in the use case: https://github.com/st3b1t/SatoshiTop#use-case: "You can define it an htop for Bitcoin..." htop and the same family of tools: top,gtop.. don't have internal history but only shows data from the time it was run onwards.

Managing a history requires a database integration... with possible criticisms also on the privacy side (example: if the permissions on this db are not managed well they cause security/privacy leaks on the bitcoin node beyond RPC access)

this may relate to future developments so I will keep this issue open for further discussion

I was reflecting on this feature.... and how useful it could be for a full node owners.

There is probably some other Munin, Nagios tool or simpler stuff that wrapping satop can build history and graphs.

If anyone has additional solutions on this matter, they are welcome
