System Monitor uses the correct units.  The bug is in GVFS, not System
Monitor.   The K = 1024 convention is unfamiliar to users (especially in
metric countries), and it is officially deprecated.  See the Linux
Programmer's Manual for an explanation.
(http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man7/units.html)

The above patch would make System Monitor inconsistent with other Ubuntu
apps that use correct units, like Partition Manager, Pidgin, Synaptic,
P2P clients, Bazaar/Launchpad, ...  Please close this as invalid and fix
GVFS.
