Snort performance output strangeness?

Hi,

When I do a 'kill -USR1 <pid>' to see the performance stats on one of
my snort processes (2.8.5.3), I see the following:

Jul 20 17:19:22 localhost snort[2296]:
===============================================================================
Jul 20 17:19:22 localhost snort[2296]: Packet Wire Totals:
Jul 20 17:19:22 localhost snort[2296]:    Received:    706180384
Jul 20 17:19:22 localhost snort[2296]:    Analyzed:   1359324466 (192.490%)
Jul 20 17:19:22 localhost snort[2296]:     Dropped:     26517651 (3.755%)
Jul 20 17:19:22 localhost snort[2296]: Outstanding:

Jul 20 17:19:22 localhost snort[2296]:
===============================================================================

The percentages are leaving me scratching my head (especially
"Outstanding").  Can anyone enlighten me?

Cheers
