If I zoom in, everything starts to be correct (let's say: "as one  
would expect") again. I'm a bit puzzled now. I've upgraded to the  
latest smokeping version yesterday, but still no improvements in this  
behaviour (except that I can zoom in now via ajax, which is nice)

hm...
do you think it would help to delete the affected graphs, may there be  
some issues with my RRDs?
