Are you sure you are comparing apples-to-apples? "b virtual show" will display totals (total bits), not rates (bits/second). The DistributionMonitor sample app will take snapshots over time and calculate the rates based on the time intervals between snapshots.

 

 

How is you are calculating the rates on the BIG-IP directly?

 

 

If you are comparing rates to rates, then If you could post the data points you are receiving from iControl as well as the time intervals then we can determine if it is a clientside 64bit calculation error or something else. We've had a few users report issues with client calculations of the 64bit numbers and that might be the issue.
