Hi Josh, We use collectd at work (French Bank) to collectd traditional performances of actually 4275 servers. We use also Collectd to retrieve several information about batch, power consuption, etc by using custom "types" and "notifications". The easier way is to use unixsock plugin to send custom statistics and/or notification. About collect interval you can pick them each second if necessary ...
