I have created a patch to invert the data passed into ministat.  It
is often easier to measure data in time (seconds) using /usr/bin/time
or another method, but often you like to think in per second, or
throughput which is the inverse.

Instead of having to massage the data, or know that below a certain
percentage you can just flip the sign, provide this, and you'll now
convert to x per second, giving you an easier comparision for talking.

Thanks.
