Chris, One limitation you will run into is that Nagios collects data at a minimum of 1 minute interval .
You can look at plain MRTG if you can collect the data via SNMP.

I got the task to run memory tests, cpu load tests and network tests under high load conditions (i.e. put a quadcore processor to 100% load on each core) and monitor the temperature and other parameters. Is Nagios with suitable plugins a solution? At the moment a proprietary framework is planned for this project, but it turns out that it is not extendable for custom requirements. I need some good arguments to convince my project leader.
