Connie, I must object, of you use the fork option in mrtg the snmp data collection can be improved a lot ... further can you run mrtg as a daemon which saves the startup time which again is substantial with a large config file ... and last you can use rrdtool for logging within mrtg which will cut down logging time massively ... depending on the amount of diskcache (ram) your box has, it will be able to log between 30 and 1000 values a second ... Oh, and you are using Unix I hope... cheers tobi -- ______ __ _ /_ __/_ / / (_) Oetiker, ETZ J97, ETH, 8092 Zurich, Switzerland / // _ \/ _ \/ / phoneto:+41(0)1-632-5286 faxto:+41(0)1-632-1517 /_/ \.__/_.__/_/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://google.com/search?q=tobi -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi
