[smokeping-users] Possible to change image type / quality?

[Tobias Oetiker]

Hi David,

rrdtool images are as small as they get with this kind of
technology. What you could do, if you were using rrdtool 1.3, is to
disable all anti-aliasing (fonts and graph) this should cause the
graphs to get quite a bit smaller.

cheers
