For comparison, my most heavily loaded data collector is a 2x Dual Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 275 (2.1Ghz), 2GB RAM. It is running -- - Nagios 2.x polling 2225 services every 5 minutes (mostly ping, some nrpe, some check_by_ssh, several other custom plugins); also submitting results to 2 central nagios servers - Cricket polling for 14,420 interfaces and updating corresponding rrd files every 5 minutes load average is currently -- 16:17:36 up 323 days, 10:43, 1 user, load average: 3.25, 3.39, 3.07 101 processes: 90 sleeping, 6 running, 5 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: cpu user nice system irq softirq iowait idle total 19.2% 0.0% 24.5% 0.0% 0.1% 8.5% 47.3% cpu00 22.0% 0.0% 21.0% 0.0% 0.0% 10.2% 46.7% cpu01 16.1% 0.0% 23.8% 0.0% 0.0% 8.0% 51.9% cpu02 18.8% 0.0% 26.1% 0.0% 0.1% 10.8% 44.0% cpu03 20.0% 0.0% 27.1% 0.3% 0.5% 5.3% 46.5% Mem: 2057192k av, 2030424k used, 26768k free, 0k shrd, 49504k buff 1562164k actv, 298668k in_d, 31376k in_c Swap: 2040212k av, 9548k used, 2030664k free 1803572k cached I also do not perform host checks but if you're on nagios-3, the performance penalties of doing regular hosts checks are no longer an issue as they are with 2.x. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
