I think you're right. 

My server with Nagios and NDO is quite old server, and checks are not so often 
(Min period is 5 minut). Nagios has set up delay between checks. 

I am quite familiar (not expert) with tunning MySQL MyISAM tables / and global 
configuration for that (query cache, sorts variables, etc). But NDO is using 
innoDB. So I think that is quite good idea to put some more details about 
tunning DB in README file. 

My server has not a lot memory (there is 384MB). And there is no chance to add 
more RAM to this server. It was useless in company, so I decided to configure 
it as monitoring system.

It tasks at this moment are only:
- run nagios checks over NRPE - and collect data to DB (NDO)
- run (every 30 minutes) Shell script (it is slow but it was the fastest way to 
write it) to read DB and update RRD files.
- cacti poller has minimal tasks (just check network stats over SNMP). 

And server is quite busy. Especially when my shell script is running. Taking 
the lastest values from DB. 

But anyway - DB should be tune on this server. 

Anyone can help? (Links, white papers, examples about tune InnoDB tables?)
