Those times seem long for that number of hosts. In most cases (including a system I'm looking at now with around 2100 hosts and 11,000 services being monitored) the bottleneck's bandwidth more than the server on the big pages like the service detail, but I haven't used a Nagios 1.x system for quite some time. Have you tried keeping your status data in RAM? I've seen some pretty decent performance gains from doing that in other cases. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
