Bernard, Currently we have about 5,500 individual nodes being monitored via a few physical 'gmetad' servers. We have several Gmetad processes running on each of the physical boxes, including a 'Rollup' Gmetad that brings all of them together. The total RRD file size across all of the servers is currently 3.2GB :-)
I am not up to speed on the RRDTool development, can you briefly let me know about what specific I/O enhancements are upcoming? --- James T.

Dear Ganglia community: Was browsing our SourceForge website and found this description of the project: "Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for high-performance computing systems such as clusters and Grids. It is based on a hierarchical design targeted at federations of clusters. Supports clusters up to 2000 nodes in size." The part I want to focus on is "Supports clusters up to 2000 nodes in size." I suppose this was probably written a while back and I would like to update it -- so if you have an installation monitoring more than 2000 hosts, do let us know and we'll update the description with the largest installation from the community :) So far I have yet to hear of anybody reaching a ceiling in terms of scaling Ganglia installations once the usual steps of putting rrds in ramdisk/tmpfs -- do let us know if you learn otherwise!
