Like you said, it's all about server size & load. No 2 answers will be the same. That having been said and repeated, I would have to suggest you take a reading every minute, stick it in the database, then graph the settings or at least report high/low/average.
The way getmetricdata() works is it takes the reading for that millisecond. You can run it 5 times a second and get different results. One number will be at zero, then 1/10th of a second later it can be at 200. It's really all about your app, and your averages. -nathan Burns, John D wrote: > I'm attempting to set up some very basic monitoring of my server via a > page use the getMetricData() function in CFMX 6.1.
