 That is what mrtg does;
Yes.

we're already using it;
No. It's an optional componant. It's optional because there is a large performance penalty for running it (the mrtg JPG generating parts, not the snmp parts). It isn't recommended for small underpowered systems (Pingtel's existing hardware base, for example).

why not take advantage of its threshold monitoring as well?
Because it's overkill, and relies on an optional componant.

Could we make the expensive part of mrtg optional, and continue to use
it for basic monitoring?
I think it actually is optional. By default, mrtg does not monitor anything and does not generate any graphs, and as I understand from Woof, that's the performance penalty. Right now mrtg isn't even started when it doesn't monitor anything, but this is easy to change.
