Title:
  Efficient use of screen is very poor when small

Status in The GNOME System Monitor:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnome-system-monitor” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

  I have my screen resolution set at 1680x1050.  The smallest I can make
  this app is that it still occupies about 1/6 of the screen area.  This
  is really bad use of space - an app like this should be able to
  operate even when its window is taken down to the size of a postage
  stamp.

  Not only that, but when operating at its smallest size, - it shows 3
  graphs, the height of the graphs is in total less than 20% of the
  window height, the rest is just wasted space.

  The important things in the voids between the graphs, such as the key
  and the scales, should plip out of existance when the graph gets below
  a certain size.

  When the graph is bigger, these problems are mitigated somewhat.

  Ubuntu 8.04.
