You will probably want to check out the aberrant behavior detection
features available in development snapshots.

Something like this can be implemented pretty easily in perl, by
fetching out the values you want to compare. You can also craft a
CDEF to do the math for you, and use "rrdtool xport" to show you the
value. A CDEF that checks DEF "a" for this would look something like:

CDEF:alert=a,PREV,a,2,*,GT,1,0,IF
