When loading 'small' numbers (i.e. my 5 minute load averages), tessera displays these wrongly:

renderer: flot:

renderer: graphite:

If you're referring the y-axis label, it's not incorrect - it's just a different format that you're getting from Graphite by default. The values are rendered by d3.format with metric prefixes -- 400m is the same as 0.40.

Fair point, however, in cases like this or others where small datapoints are being tracked it would be useful if it was possible to 'ignore' the default formatter.

We can add the ability to specify the y-axis format string, but you'll still be limited by what you can do with a d3 format string. Implementing different formats according to value ranges is pushing into a level of complexity that the current editing UI can't really handle, however.
