Methinks we have a "I keeping cutting it off but it's still too short" thing
here.

"MaxBytes" (typically near the top of a "Target" description) governs what
MRTG does.

Comment verbiage in the table area typically near the bottom (that has
among other things the string "Max Speed" in it) governs what MRTG says.
