Question #185288 on Graphite changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/185288
Nicholas Leskiw proposed the following answer: One caveat - you cannot (currently) shard a single counter across multiple servers (with whisper). You can put counter A, B, C on Server1, and D, E, F on Server2, then draw A-F on one graph. Hope this helps.
