It depends on the polling interval. It is known, that people go down to 10 sec.
interval, 1min intervals are used frequently and 5 min being the default.
Using the "spine" poller, it is possible to collect data from many thousand data
sources (we do collect about 100,000 in about 70 sec; some scripts among them
lasting 40-45 sec alone)
