Settings: one window for how far back every graph reaches, 1 minute to 24 hours

Each machine keeps 300 points per curve whatever the window, so memory doesn't follow it;
a wider window means wider points, each the average of its bucket rather than one instant
out of it. The hub passes the setting to every machine it manages.

// One kept history point is the average of the samples behind it. At the default ten-minute
// window that bucket is a single sample and nothing is averaged; at a day it is five minutes
// of them, and the difference matters — a graph of the last day drawn from whichever instant
// landed on each five-minute mark would show spikes that never happened and miss the ones
// that did.
//
// The newest sample of the bucket is the template: its shape, labels, totals and slow
// sections (filesystems, UPS) are the current ones. Only the moving numbers are averaged,
// and only where an entry is present in that sample — a disk plugged in halfway through the
// bucket is averaged over the samples that have it.
