no, that doesn't make much sense for core 1.x not being multithreaded at 
all.

it obviously looks like that your core generates a lot of checkresults 
in a short couple of time, and therefore the checkresult reaper cannot 
process them that fast. it also sounds like that the in-memory list of 
checkresults has grown huge and takes ages to be processed.

afterall it would be interesting in which interval the 5000 service 
checks are being run, and how long their execution time is. some 
icingastats and system performance graphing over time would help as well 
for the reader.
