should be able to successfully graph bit over 100 mbps with 5-minute
polling. Yet you mentioned 50M - is that megabytes or megabits? If
megabits then the 5-minute polling cycle should work just fine. If
megabytes then you'll need to go to a 1-minute polling interval which
is good to about 550 megabits/second if I recall correctly.
