Re: [Summary-Talk] Best way to get directory totals?

[Rick Crelia <rick.crelia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jason,

Aha! That makes sense (I'm still getting used to the interface...).
I backed up and did the directory traversal and it works like I
expected. Thanks!!! :-)

Suggestion: It would be nice to have different functioning links
within Summary reports use different colors|fonts|highlighting (via
CSS control). It would help highlight different selection behavior
without much development overhead (CSS is so powerful that way).
You could also expose the CSS code to the Configuration control so
we could more easily customize look and feel, etc.

Again, thanks so much!! :-)

--rc

p.s. - we're really impressed with Summary so far...I'm processing
90 million log entries in about 20 minutes (running on Linux).
Contrast this with WebTrends which we tested and the same amount
of data took about 34 hours to process.  That's right... *hours*.
Good coding job on your part. :-)
