rrdcached is a daemon and a Collectd plugin who replace rrdtool plugin.
There is no need to modify your architecture. Just install rrdcached and
configure rrdcached Collectd plugin to work with.
Before :
LoadPlugin rrdtool
<Plugin rrdtool>
DataDir "/var/lib/collectd/rrd"
</Plugin>
After :
LoadPlugin rrdcached
<Plugin rrdcached>
DaemonAddress "unix:/var/run/rrdcached/rrdcached.sock"
DataDir "/var/lib/collectd/rrd"
CreateFiles true
CollectStatistics true
</Plugin>

Hello colleagues,
Does rrdcached work the same time as network? I've created server to
collect data from several servers thru network plugin. Also I planned
to use rrdcached to decrease io but I figured out that its not working
same time when network plugin enabled.
Is it an open and well known issue, or its not an issue but the
feature?

Hello,
We're noticing some interesting patterns in collectd / librrd is
flushing RRD files to disk.
We have a 1TB volume for RRD files, which is at 75% capacity. Over the
last few weeks the response time of the disks has slowly degraded, with
a few sudden jumps (see graph below). When it jumps up in response
time, it seems collectd responds by halving the write ops, and octets.
Is it just deciding to flush half as often? If anyone has some pointers
to the details of this behaviour, that'd be great.
Also, does anyone recognise this pattern as being related to how full
the SSD backed volume is, and perhaps the disks are now needing to do
garbage collection? I'm pretty new to SSDs, and I suspect RRDs are a
fairly uncommon way to utilise SSD drives.
FWIW, we have 5 x 256 GB Micron SSDs in a IBM hardware RAID 5 set. The
OS is linux (ubuntu 12.04).
