Tooltip example for the 1.0.3 release
ASFU make addonmessages visible and prints them in a chatwindow of your choice.
Here you can see AddonSpamFu in Action . Shown are, playernames, addonname and how many traffic they send.
Description
AddonSpamFu is an Addon for monitoring the addoncommunication channels for guild, raid, group, bg &whisper.
Poorly written Addons often send too much unneeded messages over the wire.
AddonSpamFU helps you to find , which addons produce the most traffic and what kind of information they send.
When an Addon doesn't use its original name as a prefix, like many Ace-Comm-2.0 Addons do, ASFU trys to print the addonname instead of a cryptic prefix.
This only works if the Prefix<-> Addonname relationship is in the Database already.
These Addons are marked with a suffix (_KNOWN) / colored in greeen
Attention: ASFU is deprecated and was replaced with the broker-based Spamalyzer. http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/spamalyzer.aspx. Updates will only happen for that Addon
If you know the addon that is currently named UNKNOWN_(Prefix) (yellow color) or find an Addon that isn't in the List already (colored in red) , drop me a note or feel free to add it to the svn-repo yourself.

Be carefully when you try to interpret the data asfu gives you, some addons like LibHealcomm need to send a lot of messages, but that wont necessarily cause disconnects /fps drops & wont kill your cat.
Too much traffic isnt needed, but by default, the wowserver tends to send a lot more than any addon ever will ;)
