Hi André Luiz da Silva!  Thanks for the suggestion.  I’ll keep switching to UDP 
in mind, though I’m inclined to stick with TCP if at all possible (largely to 
minimize the required changes to my environment).

All - Anyone have info on using CollectInternalStats?  Still need to know what 
value to set WriteQueueLimitHigh to and having collectd tell me definitely 
seems like the best bet.

Hi, Wenersbach! Did you try to send your metrics over UDP instead of TCP? It's 
just a suggestion if you have a reliable network.



Regards.

Hi,

In order to limit high memory usage (one of my servers hit 94% for collectd) 
I’m interested in enabling the 
WriteQueueLimitHigh<https://collectd.org/documentation/manpages/collectd.conf.5.shtml#writequeuelimithigh_highnum>
 option, but I don’t know what value to use.  The docs suggest enabling 
CollectInternalStats<https://collectd.org/documentation/manpages/collectd.conf.5.shtml#collectinternalstats_false_true>,
 and that the “write_queue” plugin instance reports the info from 
CollectInternalStats that I’m looking for.  However, I don’t see any 
“write_queue” plugin nor do I see anything relevant being written by my 
existing write plugins (syslog and graphite) after enabling 
CollectInternalStats.


•         How do I obtain data written collected when setting 
CollectInternalStats to true?

•         Alternately, are there any guidelines for setting the values of 
WriteQueueLimitHigh?
