Only the most recent metric values; gmond does not keep a history of old data. The RAM footprint will scale with the number of metrics you are tracking, but this is very low in practice. There are no explicit limits that I'm aware of, but unless you are tracking hundreds/thousands of metrics, it shouldn't be a problem. -- Jesse Becker Every cloud has a silver lining, except for the mushroom-shaped ones, which come lined with strontium-90. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Ganglia-general mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-general
