Build Information:

Just an enhancement request: It gets a little hard to visually parse how much
traffic a host is generating when it is displayed only in bytes, as the number
quickly balloons into the hundreds of millions and eventually trillions of
bytes.

It would be much more user-friendly if the display automatically changed to MB
once it hit a million bytes, and then GB once it hits a trillion bytes (and so
on).

Either that, or have the user choose which format to view the bytes in. I've
attached an image of how Capsa does it, and it works very well.
