[rrd-users] Minor Graph Rendering Issue

[Chris Mason]

Hi,

Interesting problem - even with "-A" it sometimes breaks and overflows
over the 0 line.
It appears to be the data, it appears to be struggling to display it
and sometimes "-A" fixes it but sometimes "-A" breaks it and it is
displayed normally without "-A".

Any ideas?

Chris
