Yep.

I changed from 'paranoid' to a full read-only permission set, and the
CPU, Load Average, and Memory Usage graphs are now being populated.

Another factor is that it has to be graphing for some period of time
before it will generate the graphs; it doesn't happen right away,
or even after the first polling.  It appears to want to fill the graph
before it starts showing anything.
