Of course you are correct, here's one of the services.  According to the
site log, it looks like Nagios is firing off three to four requests to the
server, each time it's being checked.  These log entries are all from one
vhost log file, so it's not like Nagios is checking 4 sites, it's checking
the same site 4 times at once.
