Ability to create multiple small PCAP files

For users that have the app as always on VPN, it would be a life saver to have the feature of auto saving current capture and restart for the sake of RAM and app crashing due to huge file.

If save to file is on, the defined size upon reached will save and restart. If save to file is off, the defined size upon reached won't save but will restart to save RAM anyway.

User defined max capture sizes can be:

• 500MB
• 1GB
• 2GB
• 3GB
• 4GB
• 6GB
• 8GB
• 10GB
• Unlimited

For RAM consumption, PCAPdroid already limits the max number of connections; when the limit is reached, it removes oldest connections from memory.

For disk space, what is your intended use case? Do you want to keep a capture of the most recent traffic?

I want to save all my captures throughout the day as that's what it's for but I don't want one big 24 hour capture file, I want smaller files but it's tedious to keep on saving and restarting every hour or so.
