Monitoring download/upload speeds and graphing
Hello,
I want to monitor download and or upload speeds continuously and graph them for multiple vps.Cacti can graph custom script output results however i am looking for outsourced alternatives for easy implementation like online web sites that can graph the results of the output of your scripts etc.
What i want to achieve.

Wouldn't that unnecessarily stress your network and otherwise use up a monthly transfer allocation with little real-world benefit?
100mb * 24 * 30 ~= 72gb per month. You can cut to every 3 or 6 hours to reduce bw though.
and what is the advantage by doing that?
Benchmarking.
I think i am looking for scaleextreme's custom monitoring solutions and similar.
If you wait a week or two I can give you some scripts for this.
I'm working on a project to do something similar - serverbear is great, but it only provides a single snapshot of how the node preformed and didn't provide the network details I was looking for. Especially network performance to different geographical regions.
I have put together a couple of scripts that run speediest.net and wget's to a list of fixed servers. It runs these once an hour and records the up/down speeds to mysql. Just need to put some frontend stuff together to display / graph the results.
@prae5 I'm definitely interested in your project.
