tcpdump, tshark, wireshark, libpcap, etc. have been used every single place I
ever worked, including in production under heavy load.
This is because nobody wants to redo the library of many tens of thousands of
hours of protocol dissectors.
This is also why I am trying to point out what is required to get a solution
that I am confident will really work when people are counting on it, which I
am concerned the current proposals do not cover.
Matthew.
