Ok... I assume that what you want is the amount of used memory. This
is uniquely enclosed between 'used: ' and ' Mb' and it's a decimal number.

This line looks for digits between '...usage=' and 'Mb', which is not
the format your plugin produces.

Logical result, then.

Try this line instead:
graph_perf_regex used: (\d+\.\d+) Mb
I think that should work. And I guess you see how his works, at least
basically. Some understanding of regular expressions IS helpful here.

I think it won't fit to your plugin :-(

Well, the graphs are a little different. Most of the commands are more
or less directly passed to rrdtoll, so you'll need to read the man
pages for that beast. The command format is a little too cryptic for
me to get useful results without lots of trial and error :-)

No worries, as the Aussies are said to say :-)
