Not really, because you have to have the resources for checking
everything when nothing is down too.
If you want scalability, see how google built their database.

I thought about
Ton,
This sounds like a great candidate for scalability to not check
services on downed hosts?
On a large installation with several hosts down, if the service check
intervals for broken services increases (as I usually configure it to
do) then this could degrade the nagios server. You would

Hi,
I'm using nagios to check a lot of host and service. When a host is coming
