I sometimes add/remove a directive
cfg_dir=/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/test without any problem so I
guess it's behaving better now than it used to.

I do find it's best to do a full stop / start once a week or so
regardless though, as Nagios seems to use increasing amounts of CPU
otherwise.  Mine is quite a busy system though - I need to find some
more beefy hardware to host it!

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
