Sadly, I never finished pcp-graph.  I got most of the basic rendering
complete.  Y-axis scaling is almost done.  Here's a link to some config
files and the output they produce with some archives I had back in 2011.

So, unless you are a developer that wants to hack pcp-graph into something
that's actually done, I'm afraid that it's mostly useless for you.

(FWIW, the goal for pcp-graph was to provide the equivalent of rrdtool's
plotting abilities to pcp.  Well better than rrdtool's because pcp
understands units not just prefixes.)
