Is this going to fit in a row of a table? Or are we talking of a more
detailed view?

Throw this gif into a browser. This is more or less what I thought.

Any chance you still have some screenshot or mockup so I can imagine it
better?

We need to be careful about what we will use. oVirt is supposed to work on FF
17 [1]
but the HTML5 canvas works only since FF23 [2].
@Einav:
Is there a chance that we could start support only FF23+ and IE9+ (this one
is already OK)
because of this feature?

This is a bit different requirement. The point of this specific is to give a
better
overview in the main tab. If it will be done we can decide if we want to give
more
details in sub tabs.
