Yup.  It would be useful for a number of other things, too.  For
example, we graph web page load times from Apache, and usually a few
pages take much longer than most others.

It really does seem like it should be possible to do this, and that
rrdgraph already supports it, but I never figured out a way to get
logarithmic graphs defined in graph.php

Has anyone on this list done it, or even seen it done?
