Info updated on:

Network Inspector is a real-time network monitoring tool. It allows you to keep an eye on your download and upload speeds at a glance. The application runs on the menu bar, but the actual statistics are shown on a floating window that stays on top of other applications. This window has two modes: Mini and Full. The mini-mode, activated by default when you open the application, shows your upload and download speeds in KB/s. The speed next to the red arrow is your upload speed. The one next to the green arrow is your download speed. If you click on the menu bar and select the full mode, the window will change to a much larger display that not only displays upload and download speeds but also provides information about your Ethernet device, the maximum speed since the application has been running, and the volume of data transferred. There is also a graph that shows your interface's speeds over time.

In my testing, Network Inspector proved to be a nice application to have on my Mac. For some reason, I like to know how much data my Mac is moving at any given time, and with this tool I can get that information really quickly, without having to open any extra applications. The only problem that I found was that the full mode window didn't stay on top of other applications, and it was hard to find it at times. Since there is no dock icon that can be clicked to bring it to the top, I often had to minimize other apps to find it.

Works as expected, especially in mini mode.
You can be wary though because it's in Chinese.
