so I'm forwarding your reply to the list right now.

The idea for  the rrd files was to test the rrdgrah using the command
line syntax of rrdtool,
We can implement another function like rrd_fetch to download the data
via a json like Collection4 do.

Another idea could be update the graphs in real time without
downloading all the data, or the data of last hour,
I'm not sure about the way to do this with collectd, maybe with a
subscription mechanism.
