I am trying to use snmptrapd to process large numbers of traps as generated from our Trading Systems. Testing has shown that when large number of traps are received (750+/sec) that traps are then dropped in large quantities. Why is this happenning?, Can it be prevented?

Your Trading Systems send traps over udp to a single-threaded snmptrapd, don't they? Dropped traps are *expected* behaviour then during "trap storms".

SNMP INFORMs are the right way to handle this as they require a SNMP RESPONSE
answer. Then the sender can continue to send the notification until it
finally gets a RESPONSE.
