The scale setting ought to be applied to the meter rather than the source, i.e., 
it ought to be:

Graph3_Scale 1250000000

That said, unless you've really got something that can feed you stuff at a 
Gigabit per second, you'll probably want to reduce that scale factor. Otherwise 
you'll rarely see the meter budge from zero.
