As the explanation says, the text gives updates per peer. The graph  
does total. Besides that, the text has a semi-smart algorithm to try  
not to blame people of instability when one of the people sending us  
their prefix is just unstable themselves :)

On the traffic lights position: it is important to know whether or  
not there are more/less specifics - as that makes the difference  
between "IPs from this prefix are not very visible" and "this  
specific prefix is not visible, but as there is a less specific this  
does not affect connectivity".

I hope my talk in the routing-wg will get us some more feedback, and  
will allow us to improve further. This is not a fully finished  
project yet ;)

cheers,
