 I know it is still popular in 2015 to put numbers in console display,
 without caring about readability, but let us face it:[[br]]
 [[br]]
 if you have 128GB in use for varnish and take a quick look at varnishstat,
 you simply cannot tell anything without putting your thumb on the screen
 and counting the number of digits.[[br]][[br]]

 SMA.s0.g_bytes                                     2834700632755 [[br]]
 can you tell the amount of RAM used? I guess not.[[br]]
 The display of information in this way is (at least for real people)
 useless.
 In Europe we have a thing called 'thousands-separator', this would read
 as:
 SMA.s0.g_bytes                                     2.834.700.632.755
 and BAM! - you see it at a glance.
 Please implement this, thank you.
 (I assume in US the separator would be ',' instead of '.', anything is
 better than nothing)

 Besides of this, great work (:[[br]]
 Best,[[br]]
