Hi there, and happy new year :-) Program Running Time: 10d 21h 22m 42s So, for almost eleven days nagios runs smoothly now, no more latency problems. I'll try it again with EPN (but still without perlcache) now. Danny -- Q: Gentoo is too hard to install =http://www

I have also been having performance issues with Nagios 2.5 on a Sun E220R with two 400MHz procs and 1GB ram. Sys stats are at http://lanning.cc/kipper.html The large dips in load and system CPU time are when I restart Nagios. (cron'd twice a week, but I have also been making a lot of service upd

Hi! Recently I have run into the very same performance issues as Daniel Meyer (or so it seems). However, I'm not quite sure about it. Here's the gist of it. Currently, service check latency slowly creeps up. As it is now, it starts out at a little over 1s and after about 12 hours it's in the ar
