Its more of a math problem.  From looking at my graphs rather than the code
it appears that the graphs are scaled so the peak volume is displayed at
roughly 90% of the height of the graph.  If the peak traffic volume is
greater than 90% of MaxBytes, you will see the dotted red line; otherwise,
you won't.
