You're quite confused about how 95th %ile works, I think. It's not 95% of port capacity, it's the 95th %ile of usage (if there were 100 measurements, it'd be the value of the 95th measurement if they were sorted by size).
Since we rely on ifSpeed and ifHighSpeed, we'll always show percentages as a percentage of the physical port. We do have the ability to parse a custom speed indication out of the port description, but at the moment this isn't used for anything but displaying in the web ui, and we don't actually parse it (Mb, Gb, etc).

You can fetch the in/out/95th/etc data for each billing period from the database, or you can drag all of the measurements and work that stuff out yourself if you want a different billing style, and just use observium as a poller.
Well, 95th for links in which the actual speed is known, correct? We still have no general method to signal Observium about links with sub-port speeds, like 100Mbps ethernet ports connected to a 12/2 cable modem, right? Or did I miss that in an update?
Thanks, Mark
