Does SABnzbd under report usage when using Astranews?

Does anyone else using Astranews find that SABnzbd under reports usage?  I noted down my usage at Astra and reset the Bytes Downloaded in SABnzbd and it is already under reporting by 15% - i.e. Astra shows 15% more usage than SABnzbd?

Does anyone else notice this?

How many bytes does sabnzbd say it has downloaded, and how many MB does astraweb say you have transfered?

Might be more accurate to download a program for your pc that measures network transfer and compare it against what SABnzbd says.

Please excuse this if there is an obvious answer, but could someone explain how to reset the "Bytes Downloaded" field on the History page?  I am not able to find any way to do it.
Many thanks in advance!
Hal

Is it possible that SAB doesn't count headers? and Astraweb does?

Don't know, heard something along these lines, but could be talking out my rear end  ;D

We count raw incoming data for the speed display and speed limiter.

The sizes shown in the queue are the sizes of the unprocessed files
(usually RARs and PARs).

The actual amount of downloaded bytes is larger because
of the article and yEnc-encoding overhead.

Not using SSL encryption are you that would have a massive impact.
