Hi Brad: I decided to move the thread to ganglia-developers since it was evolving into a development discussion.

AFAIK filtering only works with gmetad's interactive port and the only ganglia component which uses it is the web frontend. So creating this new filter wouldn't really help with reducing the amount of XML being tossed between the daemons unless we modify gmetad to be able to talk to each other via the interactive port? Or am I missing something here?
