Hey,

 > Happy to support this as/when required :)

Cool, I'll be in touch - get those docker skills flowing... :) (I'll give you destructions, so it should be a matter of a few config files - certificate and docker start, followed by "docker run" or "compose up", although I generally dont use compose (probably should sometimes)).

The only downside to cockroach is that it'll probably use about 1GB of RAM (perhaps more) - I havent actually checked into it, so hopefully you have the memory. On my laptop it seems to sit around 256MB, although it was spiking at 750MB when I was importing. With docker you can limit how much memory it gets, but the OS will kill it if it tries to take more than what you give it.

There is, you have two options:

1) Click on the echoarea (in the legend) to toggle showing that echoarea in the graph. The offending area is FSX_BOT (IIRC). I was thinking of having a config on each area, toggling it between "normal" (ie: people traffic) and "bot" (ie: computer traffic) and thus by default turning off the non-human echos by default.

That doesnt fix it when a system goes rogue later (in a people traffic echo) - although I'm no longer importing messages with the same CRC as a previous message (in the same echo by the same FTN address in the last week). So each message (within a week at least) will then be truely unique.

2) Using your mouse, you can "drill" into a time period. Click and drag (either direction), and the graph will zoom into the selected time period and redraw.

Oh, and I've fixed the graphic so that the legend takes up less space - that'll show when I do the next update.
