count ethernet traffic

Hallo,
I have a server on witch I would like to install a small, fast and
memory-processor cheap tool in order to count ALL traffic from the NIC.
What are your suggestions? I would preffer a tool that will not decrease
the server's preformance and if it's possible will not use iptables or any
other kernel/module tool.

Thank you.
