[rrd-users] Re: Graph question - multiple graphs from same DS

[Torleiv Ringer]

Well, this might be easier:

1) Generate a png image for each time series you want to look at.
	For example, lets do one for today, and one for ysterday.
2) Now take all of the data lines from the first graph, and superimpose
   them onto the second.

   Repeat if you want more than two graphs as the composite.

This works, and you can see an example perl script here:
http://newover.consumption.net/broncplus/composite.html

Essentially, the program uses PerlMagick to walk the first image. For
each pixel, check to see if we should copy it to the next image. It's
not that fast, doing a 650x350 image in 5seconds, but seems reasonable.
