I estimate we could do at least 3000 targets with MRTG 2.9pre26 and rrdtool on an Ultra 2. That's 1000 routers /w three interfaces each. > 2.

With rateup, this wasn't a big problem, but with rrdtool the graphs gets really ugly. > 3. How CPU intensive is mrtg. Not very; lots of time is spendt on I/O. But you would want to fork a lot. > 4.
