  Other places like disk monitor seem okay to me with bytes. I proposed bits per second for network monitor since users internet speeds are advertised/shown as "Mbps" or "Kbps" or the like.
  
  For the 1024 or "kilo" - should I change the i18nc working to say "mebibytes per second" and "kibibytes" in the context info?
