In the new dashboard there is an Uptime Checks Percentage. Mine ranges on various nodes from 82.9% to ~87% … Other than being down for quick docker pull and re-creating the container for updates my node is rarely down. How do the uptime checks work? and what is being checked?

> The counts are lifetime counts so they won’t change much. The dashboard shows a lifetime percentage, which is a bit misleading. I agree that it should be switched to the score, but I believe there may already be some plans for that going by the design mockup posted here.
