NETSTAT command on Terminal

Hi all,


I often use the terminal Netstat command to check network stats.

I run it in background (in a terminal window) with the following line:

netstat 1 (refresh every second)


Often, it crash, and that's the error message:

netstat: sysctl IFMIB_IFALLDATA SUPPLEMENTAL: Cannot allocate memory


I have 16 GB of RAM installed


Any idea?

Thanks in advance

Does it fail if you use the 'netstat -w 1' format to start it?
