Re: rrdtool performance tuning

any hints to tune rrdtool with ~30k rrd files (approx 2k target devices)?

machine is mostly IO-bound, showing 100% disk load with 8 or sometimes even 3 mB/s, 300-400 tps (it's 2 SATA300 disks in gmirror)

What are you using as a snmp poller? Some pollers are not very efficient in the way that they collect and write information to rrd files. Also, I've seen users setup RRD files with redundant information, which means you may be writing the same data multiple times.

If you know that the collection and writing of data is about as efficient as possible, then my advice would be to get faster disks and use hardware RAID.

Thanks in advance.
