Comment (by wagon):

 > Please log BW events
 I disabled logging on my system, because I want my system to be more
 amnesiac about its past. I don't think that Nyx should rely on existence
 of old log files with BW events.
 > This looks tor simply isn't reporting any traffic
 Don't you think that Nyx should recognize its start up as a special case,
 and start counting only from the first non-zero value(s)? "3 MB/s" jump
 during inactivity period looks as absurd anyway.
