Wow, that did the instant trick, I dropped it to 5 and have let it run for
an hour or so.  By this time normally I'd have ~10-20 nagios procs, but this
thing is really chugging thru them!  Thanks so much...the next thing to do
would be to make the log more efficient by making a ram disk...what files
should I include on a ram disk?
