> 
> I have a Nagios setup that is monitoring ~ 1000 hosts and ~ 13,000
> services.  The active checks are run on a Sun box with 128 CPUs/cores.
> Since it appeared that status.cgi could only be single threaded, it
> meant
> that the Sun box was slow in putting a page together, so all checks
> were
> forwarded to a fast Intel machine which puts together the page in about
> 2
> seconds instead of about 16 on the SPARC.

> However, NSCA is now slowing the process, either on the sending or the
> receiving end.  There are only two NSCA processes running, so I suspect
> that this is the problem.
> 
> I can think of a number of alternatives.  One would be to load up
> ndoutils, which looks like a fine solution, but I'm a but under the gun
> here and I'd really like to find something that works quickly.

> An alternative might be to use syslog to get the data from one machine
