realistic system requirements and capacity

[ffejes at sears.com]

Hello.  Our Nagios 1.0b4 system currently has ~250 hosts and ~350 services.
We are running on a NetBSD 1.5.2 server with a PII/400MHz CPU and 128MB
RAM.  This machine is also serving HTTP, FTP, and SMB.  Lately the load
average has been hovering around 0.1 and the cpu is virtually idle most of
the time.  I have not fully investigated distributed servers and, for the
moment, simply have a smaller sparc linux machine serving as a hot standby.

Hope this info helps.

To any and all experienced nagios users, what system requirements would you
recommend to run a Nagios install at full capacity, and what would you
consider full capacity before impementing distributed servers? I.E., how
many checks would you recommend one server perform?

thanks,
