Hey Fred,
If you can organize your data into a spreadsheet you can use the built in graphing abilities of LibreOffice Calc. That should be sufficient for a limited use application like you are describing.
I use LibreOffice Calc to make an hourly graph of my Internet upload and download speed performance.

Hi!
I have bazillions of incoming (rejected) attempts to connect to my SMTP server, and I'm interested in separating out those that seem to come in huge bunches (e.g., the one from yesterday that ran for about 10 hours and sent over 4100 attempts), and graphing them so I can see the spacing and/or distribution in time.
I can figure out some simple scripting to turn the maillog entries into times since the epoch, or other formats, if needed, but I have no experience with the various graphing tools availabe, or even what (or where) they are.
I'd appreciate pointers-and-or-advice, should any of you have any such things to give.
thanks in advance!
Fred
