RRDtool integration

I am using RRDtool to store some data that is collected by Nagios. I am not using the perfdata functionality because its not many plugins that supports it. Instead I have a wrapper-script that takes a function-name as argument and executes that function (often an Nagios-plugin), extracts the perf-part and stores it in a rrd and finally returns a status and statuscode to Nagios.

I also have a small cgi that draws graphs for the last 10 mins, hour, day, week, etc and a link to that cgi as 'extended host info'.

Hi

Has anybody used RRDTool data for the service of nagios. Actually on the
monitoring server, there are many softwares running for monitoring like
MRTG,Smokeping,Nagios. This causes a lot of load on CPU while hosts are
checked redundantly from nagios,smokeping. Smokeping also pings every host
at some intervals. It uses RRD tool to store its information.
If the information stored in RRD can be used by nagios ping services ,
then a lot of load can be reduced on the server.
Has anybody done that before or some useful suggestions.
