How can I change the memory displaying unit?

In Readme.md, the example shows the unit of memory usage in GB, but my browser shows in MB.
How can I change this unit?

Thanks @sjoh-kw.

The unit should automatically be adjusted based on the current usage. See the source for the relevant logic:

jupyterlab-system-monitor/packages/system-monitor-base/src/model.ts

Lines 256 to 284 in 926069c

	export const convertToLargestUnit = (
	numBytes: number
	): [number, ResourceUsage.MemoryUnit] => {
	if (numBytes < MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.KB) {
	return [numBytes, 'B'];
	} else if (
	MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.KB === numBytes ||
	numBytes < MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.MB
	) {
	return [numBytes / MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.KB, 'KB'];
	} else if (
	MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.MB === numBytes ||
	numBytes < MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.GB
	) {
	return [numBytes / MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.MB, 'MB'];
	} else if (
	MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.GB === numBytes ||
	numBytes < MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.TB
	) {
	return [numBytes / MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.GB, 'GB'];
	} else if (
	MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.TB === numBytes ||
	numBytes < MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.PB
	) {
	return [numBytes / MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.TB, 'TB'];
	} else {
	return [numBytes / MEMORY_UNIT_LIMITS.PB, 'PB'];
	}
	};

Closing as jupyterlab-system-monitor has now been integrated in jupyter-resource-usage: jupyter-server/jupyter-resource-usage#191

Feel free to open a new issue on the jupyter-resource-usage repo if needed: https://github.com/jupyter-server/jupyter-resource-usage

Thanks!
