In our application we use notifications and in some cases a hanging request and at other times a poll. In both cases this XHR traffic makes the resources graph get overloaded with those requests. Similar problems can be seen on web chat applications or stock quote apps that update via XHR or iframes frequently. If you are trying to profile/inspect your static app load (CSS, images, HTML, etC) you want to be able to pause/stop the graph from tracking additional requests from any app logic that does polling. While we have the ability to disable polling in our app there are cases where you don't want to or can't disable it so you end up with a very messy graph after sometime.

I don't know if there's a bug about that but I remember talking about adding a way to choose the scale of the timeline. Maybe this would help this case too.

Timelines have been reimplemented. Please re-open if there are still scaling problems.
