We have plenty of customers with far more than 1000 hosts. 800 should just be
a matter of running Nagios on a decently beefy hardware. Don't attempt it
with a virtual system though. They have notoriously crappy performance with
multi-fork()'ing applications, and if you ever hit the swap, they'll degrade
even further.

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.
