Howdy David,

While I agree that it is slightly annoying that it doesn't display more than
just 3 hours horizontally (I'd like to see a few more hours), is that
perhaps a trade-off vs. the performance that it takes to generate and/or
render 300 or more lines worth of listings for those 3 hours?  8x the number
of hours would perhaps mean an 8x slow down?  And to be honest, 24 hours of
listings seems like an overkill to me.

Just another -user,
