(1)   use halos instead of selectionhalos. They are scalable.

(2)   zoom {whatever} 0

The "0" there means "to fit the screen"
If that is not quite to your liking, you can follow that with a multiplier:

zoom {whatever} 0; zoom * 0.95

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
