It has been brought to my attention that, since a value 0 is not the same
as value none, we should maybe show 0 values in the task performance
information.
Although I understand that none is not 0, I still think that, in the case
of task performance information, if the value is 0 I don't need to care
about it, since the task is not consuming any resources. If I don't need
to care about it, why are you showing it to me? I am of the minimalistic
kind.
Having said that, I am happy with both options. I have made the necessary
changes and pushed them to
bbarrosp/show-zeros
so that you can see how it looks like. If you feel strongly one way or
another, please speak out.
Thanks!
Belén

FWIW, as a user I don't want to see 0 values and see no point in showing
them, especially if the task doesn't actually use resources. But then
again, I prefer minimalist design too.
For those who do want to see these values, perhaps in the future we
could provide a "best of both worlds" solution, some option for: "okay,
give me all the raw data you have". And I wouldn't mind if it would just
be simple, unformatted text that I open in a new tab.
Cheers,
Stefan
