I makes perfect sense to me and I think it's be absolutely awesome to have something like that. Especially moving around in the graph (zooming in/out, show an earlier/later timespan) will be much faster if the client already has the data (because it was pre-fetched or cached or something) and the server doesn't have to generate graphs over and over again. > Even if you want to generate the image itself client-side it would > still make more sense to send only the source data required to the > client. Definitely. The HTTP allows for clients to only request part of a file. If not a primary goal when developing something like this, in the long run support for those ranges should be added.
