Signal K server connection rates published as loggable data
A Signal K pull request turns each connection's delta and write rates into data, so boats can log, chart and alarm on them instead of only seeing them in the admin page.

The full story
Signal K is open-source server software for boats. It already counted each connection's incoming and outgoing messages per second, but only showed them on the admin dashboard, so they could not be logged, charted or used in an alarm.
This pull request writes those rates into the data model too. An alarm zone can now warn when an NMEA 2000 feed stops, and history plugins record the rates without changes. A connector running as its own process can report its own rates, and the server then steps aside.
