Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

Eight percent of the male population suffer from some form of
colorblindness. Therefore it the choice of colors for download and
upload rates in gnome-system-monitor is not so good. I suffer from mild
colorblindness, and have problems separating colors with a blue base and
red or green tints from each other. It would be better to switch one of
the colors to something very different, for example dark red or brown,
and keeping the other one blue. As it is now I can't see any difference
between the download and upload, which is annoying since I use it often
to check if my crappy internet connection is working.

I sincerely hope you perform this easy fix!
