I have a similar problem with our 6 6509s (2 more waiting for power) and two 
7613s, e.g. one has 258 graphs (look for linecount= in the HTML).

Well, the thing is that the graphs are put in by Hobbit, not by devmon. As you 
may have noticed, I have already provided patches to Hobbit to correct some 
issues, and it may be possible to address some of these by patching Hobbit. 
I'll look and see if it is feasible to put in a pop-up graph (e.g. when 
mousing over the status icon for the interface in the table).

However, I was personally thinking of implementing a weathermap view (similar 
to the Cacti plugin).
