For this monitor, without a fixed max, in time-based visualisations (Curves, Columns etc) the displayed data max is used as the max, in other visualisations (e.g. Bars) the max value the monitor has observed since it has started is stored and slowly decays over time (10% reduction over 105 measurements according to an old comment). | For a general discussion of the Advanced section, please see the CPU Usage monitor above.
