I'm not sure I understand, but if I do understand what you mean, then
wouldn't contracting all my time ranges (by adding -1000 to each one)
have solved this?  For example, if my "day" is no 86400 but actually
85400, then wouldn't it cause there to always be enough data in the
day RRA to give me a non-chunky "day" graph?

That sounds like something different from what I'm seeing.  When I see
blocky graphs, all graphs for a given time range are block, while
graphs for other time ranges are not.  And it always fixes within a
few minutes.  I have not extended my polling interval in gmetad.conf.
