Wim,

Thanks for the info, particularly the config file values. It is always good to see what works for someone on a large network. Are you using the "sql_dont_try_update" directive? I have been thinking of trying this to reduce the database bottle neck.

Hey

I'm monitoring 7500+ hosts and pmacct keeps up fine. Biggest bottleneck is the backend database and pure disk I/O.

Before starting pmacctd, my start script does:

echo 512000 > /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max
echo 512000 > /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max

Here are some values from the config file:

plugin_pipe_size: 512000
plugin_buffer_size: 4096
sql_cache_entries: 99991
! eof

Hi
I am monitoring a large area network if anyone has similiar network,i
would be glad to know what vaules are u guys using and if they can be
set via pmaact.conf and /etc/systlc.conf only?

As for release i think some example values would be nice to include in
next version.

Thanx for help
Peter
