Full Throttle Nagios

There are several tweaks one can do to make Nagios more or less saturate the
CPU, but none of them are enough if the number of checks rise above a certain
level. We've noticed that we can run about 60K service-checks so long as we
don't have many state-changes in the network. That's not nearly good enough,
so it will be improved.

Work is under way to revamp the Nagios check handling though. It will get
better, but it's a series of large patches that need to be thoroughly tested
before they get released.

I'll holler when I have them in a testable state, since I guess a lot of
people would be quite interested in trying out the new checking engine I'm
working on. If it works as good as it seems to, it should alleviate a lot
of performance issues.

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.
