// NET_STATS estimates average network throughput,
// i.e. the average total throughput in both the up and down directions.
// Here's how it works: NET_STATS::poll() is called every second or so.
// If there are any file transfers active,
// it increments elapsed time and byte counts,
// and maintains an exponential average of throughput.
