chrismd proposed the following answer:
Yes it sounds like your storage schema configuration is expecting
datapoints more frequently than they are being received. The reason the
size of your graph matters is because you are probably graphing a lot of
datapoints, more than can fit in the small graph (ie. more datapoints
than horizontal pixels). This forces graphite to aggregate adjacent
datapoints and so the gaps in your data are probably magically
disappearing because of this aggregation. When you maximize and make the
graph wider it probably has enough horizontal pixels to draw the raw
datapoints (and hence the gaps) without aggregation.
