I've worked on this a bit, and so far I've come up with the solution that you can see on my site - e.g. if you go to http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/servers/ , pick the "cpu" display for the first host, and click the graph to see the 4 periodic graphs.
Direct link: http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/hobbitgraph.sh?host=voodoo.hswn.dk&service=la
At the bottom of the page you can define the lower- and upper-limit for the graph, and which periodic graph you want to see. E.g enter "0.5" in the upper-limit, click "View" and you'll get graphs that cut off spikes at load 0.5.
Something like that you had in mind ?

I like! :-) I like he cpu test too...is that a test that is available on the hobbit server?

The cpu (and the other client-side tests) show up if you install the Big Brother client on the servers you're monitoring. You can get it as part of the Big Brother package on bb4.org.
There is some work underway for a free (i.e. Open Source) client implementation; Emanuel Dreyfus has been working on a client for NetBSD, and I think it's designed so it will be easy to make it handle other Unix-like operating systems.

I'm using the bb client on remote machines, including the cpu test...Hobbit just graphs the load average but doesn't include the ps output like yours does. I'm going to guess it's because the bb clients I am using are 1.9e :-)

You can get that too, if you have "top" installed on the systems. In your client's etc/bbsys.local, add this:
TOP="/usr/bin/top" TOPARGS="-b -n 1" export TOP TOPARGS
This is for "top" on Linux, I think the Solaris parameters need a bit of tweaking.
