If you check the end and start period, you will see that I used your
earlier formula to make sure I had the correct amount of sample
The value returned by rrdtool graph was 481, I thought that was the
width of the graph ...
I realise now

Still doesn't make sense why it would do normalisation when
calculating a minimum or a maximum... There's no need for it, it will
always give inaccurate result.
