The Network Bandwidth graph adjusts automatically based on the throughput. Throughput refers to the actual rate at which data is successfully transferred over the network. This metric is crucial as it reflects the performance of the network at a given time, taking into account the amount of data being transmitted and the available bandwidth.

When assessing network performance, understanding throughput provides insights into potential bottlenecks or the overall health of the network. As conditions change, like an increase in data transfer or varying amounts of traffic, the graph dynamically reflects these changes, helping administrators to monitor and manage network performance effectively. This ability to adapt based on throughput ensures that users can see the real-time impact of their network configurations and usage patterns.

The other options, while related to network performance, do not directly influence the graph's adjustment mechanism in the same manner. For instance, while the system load is interesting, it primarily refers to the servers' performance capacity rather than illustrating data transfer efficiency directly.
