Because you selected mismatched options for the axis tic step and the tick label format. One is in powers-of-ten, the other is in powers-of-two. > If I use set format y "%.b %BB" I've get 10kiB, 20kiB .... > Is it possible to change the "i"? No, because omitting it would be wrong. ISO standard power-of-1024 prefixes have an 'i' to distinguish them from power-of-1000 prefixes. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix for the details. Without them, the output would be just as brutally wrong as all the abusers of decimal prefixes for binary powers have been over the years. Strictly speaking "ki" is wrong, too. It should be "Ki".
