hm, looks like the mapupdate talks to a variable number of peers, and if that number is too large, the graph doesn't fit.

So the fix would be to either reduce the height of the individual bars (if that's possible) or increase the height of the overall graph, according to the number of peers being displayed.

It might be a good idea to switch to PIL and build the graph ourselves (instead of using the google chart API), but I didn't want to add another library dependency. Using PIL would get us more control, at the expense of needing to write more code.

See also #1942 which would also fix this ticket. (I'd prefer to fix #1942, but if somebody fixes this ticket, I would accept it until #1942 obviates it.)
