[mrtg] Re: mrtg performance

[Schuyler Bishop]

That's one way to do it - but why don't you just create your own index page
and create the graphs with the appropriate calls to your CGI?  In my case, I
use the popular 14all.cgi, and send it params like the following for a daily
graph of 1.1.1.1_1 with a config file of test.cfg:

http://myserver/cgi-bin/14all.cgi?log=1.1.1.1_1&cfg=test.cfg&png=daily

In 14all.cgi, I've defined the $cfgfiledir to be where I keep my configs,
and fixed the icondir.

That way, you generate one config file with MRTG's cfgmaker and use it in
rrdtool/14all.cgi as well.

Just me bein lazy.  :)

I use MRTG integrated with RRDtool and run one config file but use a
separate config file and cgi script for each device.

That way you can separate the data collection from the graph formatting.

RRDTool is much faster and less processor hungry than rateup too.
