In some cases, you might be able to use Factor[]: to multiply everything by
a set value.  You cant put a constant into the MRTG Target in the way you
are asking, though.

If you use MaxBytes, then (if you use routers2 as your frontend) you can use
the 'aspercent' option to convert the display to a percentage of maxbytes.
Alternatively, specify a Target like
memoryCommittedBytes.0&memoryCommitLimit.0:public at localhost and use the
dorelpercent option (show A as a percentage of B).
