That's correct. The reason for that is that a non-root process is not allowed to read which inodes root process has open, thus there is no way for the helper to map from incoming port to process ID. The only way I know of solving that is by having the helper run as root, which I would prefer to avoid.

This is done by capturing the amount of incoming/outgoing bytes and each second reporting that value, then resetting the counter. Changing this value would thus result in changing the reported unit, so I'd rather keep it a hardcoded constant here.
