Hi Tomas

how high is the load on the system? Are periodic host checks globally
enabled (execute_host_checks=1)? How does icingastats output look? Do
you run any addons (idoutils) or other services on the same machine?

I think your hardware should be good enough for the number of
hosts/services unless you run the service checks in very short
intervals.
