low values metric networkobservability_adv_forward_bytes

[y0zg]

Hello

Retina 0.0.30 installed in AWS EKS 1.30 in Advanced Remote Context mode.
MetricsConfiguration CRD is added

I want to test external traffic received by pod

curl -w 'Total bytes received: %{size_download}\n' https://download.thinkbroadband.com/200MB.zip -o /dev/null
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100  200M  100  200M    0     0  29.5M      0  0:00:06  0:00:06 --:--:-- 35.3M
Total bytes received: 209715200

but this expr shows pretty small values comparing to file size
sum (increase(networkobservability_adv_forward_bytes{source_podname="nginx"}[15m]))/1024/1024

Any thoughts please? @SRodi
