[mrtg] Basic question

[Adam Waltman]

Does mrtg, when run every 5 minutes, go out and collect a snapshot of what
is happening at 5 minute intervals and then average it or does it find out
what has been going on for the entire 5 minutes?  The reason I ask is that
if something were to spike the bandwidth in between the polling interval,
would that show up on the graphs?

Thanks,
