Fantastic. That's another 3 minutes off - I'm now down to less than 5 mins from the start of one check cycle to the start of the next. If I upgrade my hardware, and if Dirk can roll out multithreading and multi-check authentication, I should be able to finish a cycle before I start the previous one... ;-)
Outstanding work Dirk.

Subject: [SA-list] RE: [SA-list] RRD batch processing
hmm while looking at the source, this can't be the
issue.
The generation of the graphs is done via a "SHELL" command
and the app is not waiting for a shell to be ended. So it's not the
generation of the graphs that is causing the problem.
Currently if you want the graphs to be generated after the
update, we have to wait for the update to be done. And it's the app (Servers
Alive that is waiting).
What we could do is the following:
IF the "wait until..." option is checked
then
change update BAT file so that it calls the
graph bat file at the end
else
let the update bat as it is
endif
That way we won't wait for the RRD stuff to be
completed.
I just
made that change to the 5.9 build - you can try the version that is currently on
http://beta.woodstone.nu (PAGE is NOT
updated with this info yet).

Subject: [SA-list] RRD batch processing
Here's another thought for a feature request that would help with cycle times. As I've mentioned, the RRD batch processing on our checks takes about 3-4 mins every check cycle. Whilst the hourly and daily graphs need to be done immediately, I could happily live with a less frequent update for the weekly graph, and the monthly and yearly ones could be done much less frequently. What would be the possibility of splitting these out within SA, and have the option to run some of them at specific times (say 2am) and/or set frequencies (say every couple of hours) rather than at the end of every cycle?
