Gmond itself only keeps data in RAM.  It does not write data out to
disk.  The gmetad program is responsible for collecting the data (from
one or more gmond processes) and then writting out rrd files.

It is not discarded after being sent, although the data can expire
after getting too old.

I assume you mean the case where a TCP connection is made to gmond,
and the XML data is retrieved.  In this case, whatever data currently
held in RAM is returned.  If you make two connections immediately
after each other, you should get (basically) the same data.
