Maybe you can trade in hard drive space for a performance gain. This of course depends highly on the details of your setup, however it is worth trying. If you don't create graphs often, most of the current disk IO is wasted. Also, if your graphs are not created with a resolution that is available in one of the RRAs, current disk IO is wasted. Maybe you can setup a test RRD with only one RRA. If you use this RRA to graph 400 days, rrdtool will need to consolidate 400 times 1440 CDPs into 400 pixels. However, you currently are doing the same spread out over time, even if you're not going to graph it. cheers, -- __________________________________________________________________ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ | work private | | My employer is capable of speaking therefore I speak only for myself | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Technical questions sent directly to me will be nuked.
