I take my perfstats file and run it through pmgraph to generate statistics
of my network every 24 hour period.  This is not something I generally
recommend.  (I don't recommend restarting Snort if you can get away with it,
letting it run as much as possible.)  I just like those statistics.

In my experience it's less necessary to restart barnyard.  (I only
restart it on Snort rule updates.)  I have a script that restarts
Snort every day though.


Because......?????
