high latency

[Daniel Wittenberg]

Not using SNMP for any of the checks, and most are passive checks.  For
the few active checks we are probably going to be using dnx.  

Embeded perl is interesting though, I hadn't tried that, thought it was
supposed to help with performance.  I don't think we have any obsessive
stuff running right now.

Right now hardware is 4 proc vmware esx, 4GB RAM.  For production there
will be 12 of those boxes with the number of hosts being about 1200-1500
per nagios server.

170 services per host? Sounds like an awful lot of switches. I'd use
some cleverness to grab snmp-info once and parse the data afterwards
if I were you.

For that kind of installation, you'll need to use a distributed setup
of some sort. merlin, dnx and apparently mod-gearman should get you
going in the right direction.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
