There was talk about replacing RRD with MySQL by some users previously, I wonder how that went... Now that I think about it, it makes more sense to archive data in MySQL and if you want historical data/graphs, then you go to MySQL (as opposed to RRD for live feeds). I suppose that's what you're doing (sort of)? Cheers, Bernard
