Hi Ingo,

The performance data will eventually have to change as even right now
there isn't much flexibility to represent anything fancy even with the
current thresholds. You can try to see what current plugins using
standard perfdata functions return when specifying a full range and
mimic that, or just leave the fields empty (i.e. aggr0=52%;;;) until a
new format is used.

Thanks
