I have collectd running with, among other things, cpu and aggregation plugins 
enabled, and data forwarded to Graphite. Configuration for cpu/aggregation are 
(as per the wiki):

LoadPlugin cpu
LoadPlugin aggregation

<Plugin "aggregation">
 <Aggregation>
    Plugin "cpu"
    Type "cpu"

    GroupBy "Host"
    GroupBy "TypeInstance"

    CalculateSum true
    CalculateAverage true
  </Aggregation>
</Plugin>

On a single-cpu system the aggregated value is the same as the CPU idle metric, 
a value less than 100. On a system with 2 CPU's, the CPU Idle value for each 
CPU is less than 100, but the aggregated CPU idle is anywhere up 5 million. For 
example, on a test host, CPU idle for cpu0 and cpu1 is 94.50 and 94.90 
respectively but the aggregated cpu idle value is 337,012.86. This pattern 
repeats for all the CPU metrics.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

thanks
mike
