[mrtg] MRTG draws wrong when the traffic arrive 100 ~110 Mbit...

[Ed LaFrance]

In addition to what's mentioned below, I 
discovered that older versions of MRTG (2.9.17 in 
my case) fail to graph properly at above 100 
Mbps. It's likely you just need to poll more 
often as Jan mentioned, but you might also want 
to ensure that you are running the latest MRTG.
