I have a few questions as to what, exactly, I'm seeing on the "Trends"
graphs.

Xymongen and Xymonnet runtime.... Is this the time, in (mili)seconds
that it takes for those processes to run on that system?  In other
words, if the Xymongen says 300m, does that mean it took 300 miliseconds
to generate a webpage?  And, if xymonet says 2 s, does that mean it took
2 seconds to run all of the network tests on that host?

Incoming messages - My graph is showing about "625 m"... what is "m"? My
average is 0.6  What does that number mean?


Thank you.

Yes, the runtime for both of these is what's graphed. The current value
should equal the "TIME TOTAL" line within the status message itself.

I think the "m" is just the RRD-tagged, auto-generated SI prefix...

0.6 x = 600 milli-x
