Problem

When using a grouped query there are sometimes too many lines displayed on the graph, and you might end up with something complicated to read, for example:

too_many_metrics_1

… where you only need to focus on the hosts with high load values here.

Solution

The top function is a good fit to display only the few relevant lines on the graph:

too_many_metrics_2

See the Top function documentation for more details.
