[Bug 396010] Re: Different units/percentage in hints of the meters
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%)
How do you think we could address these issues?

Title:
Different units/percentage in hints of the meters
Status in The GNOME System Monitor:
New
Status in “gnome-system-monitor” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor
Now, information from hints of the meters in applet:
1. CPU load - percentage
2. Memory - percentage
3. Network load - MB/S
4. Swap - percentage
5. load average - by value
6. Hard drive - percentage.
I think, every hint should contain percentage and raw value for every
meter.
