I had a suspicion that the cause might be large numbers of hosts that go down. Until I get around to them the host checks obviously continue... perhaps that's what's causing the general slowdown in all of nagios.

Think about why a host check is executed... not only when a host is really down... Every time when a service check returns a non-OK state nagios will do a host check.

On the other side might it be, that you are using dist-monitoring with nsca?

We have had very high latency (600seconds up to somthing around three hours) when using nsca on each single service_check result.

Just my 2 cents

Makes me wish again host checks were parallelized.

I had large latencies caused by (1) hosts being down and (2) a host check that took way too long. Nagios will suspend all service checks while it performs a host check. In my case, the Nagios config I inherited made 10 attempts at 30 seconds each attempt before declaring a host to be down, so if one host went down, the host check took 300 seconds. I typically have 15 hosts down out of 475. I changed my host checks to 3 attempts at 6 seconds each, and latencies went way down.

    Service Check Execution Time:    0.10 / 10.04 / 2.175 sec

    Machine is a P3 733mhz with 128mb ram running 2.6.11-gentoo-r3
    kernel and Nagios 2.03b


    Any ideas as to why it has such huge latencies?
