[smokeping-users] RTT Alerts - In Percentages?

  Unfortunately, there's no way native to Smokeping that you could do 
this.  Currently there are exactly 2 ways to trigger alerts:  hardcoded 
RTT values, and loss percentage.

It would almost certainly be possible to hack this functionality in, 
though.  If you ever get around to it, I'm sure Tobi would appreciate a 
patch.  :)
