Question: Where can I find global traffic stats broken down by protocol?

I'd like a picture of just how much bandwidth the various TCP/UDP protocols (FTP, HTTP, NNTP, BitTorrent) take up along some large sample. Percent distributions would be fantastic. Anyone know where to get this data? My kung-fu helps me not.

For the world? For your ISP?

I googled "bandwidth breakdown by protocol" and got lots of good-looking hits.

Not much current data, but I didn't look too hard.

for yourself, look at the "ntop" tool.

for the world, or for a big ISP would do.
