Comment (by leeroy):

 Oh, a spec I've not read. Thank you. Why's it hidden?

 Visualizing measurements is off-topic. Providing the current measurements
 data, from votes, just so someone can make  graph is out of scope (unless
 you want to change Onionoo's scope). Onionoo already provides the
 Consensus Weight and Weights history document.

 That being said as long as Onionoo doesn't try to build a history object
 from archives (because that's bad news) it looks doable on an hourly
 basis. If you really intend to expect an operator to parse votes archives
 then Onionoo needs to make producing the bandwidth measurements optional
 to setup.

 To reinforce feasibility perhaps it would be better to test it first. An
 extension of the previous parsing result would be "Parse the current
 interval vote, obtain an !`Iterable` mapping fingerprint to set of
 measurements", and see what kind of memory/time is required. Much better
 than blindly hacking in new code. But it's up to you's.
