Showing the percentage and raw unit for each graph is problematic, because: 1: CPU usage is expressed in percentage, and as far as I know, when the 2400MHz CPU usage is at 10%, it's not 240MHz, so displaying raw units doesn't seem appropriate for me. 2,4: As the Memory and Swap are displayed on the same graph, but they often have different sizes, showing percentage seems to be the best to address this. 3 For the Network load showing percentage is problematic, as we don't know what's 100% network usage, we can't easily find the network bandwidth, there's another bug reported for this, see bug #614848. 5. For load averages, we could show the percentage (value*100) but there's no raw unit to display here neither. 6. Hard drive usage is shown both with raw value and percentage (e.g. Used : 20.6 GB 57%)
