Hi,

Thanks for Heaptrack - it's awesome.

Currently Heaptrack shows the vertical graph axes labels as unformatted numbers. When there are many allocations, the numbers consist of mostly zeros, like 10000000000, 11000000000, etc.). I find such output hard to decipher.

I think it would be good to instead shorted the numbers by appending SI order of magnitude prefixes like 1000000000 -> 1B or 1 billion.

Thanks
