[mrtg] Re: 14all.cgi & routers.cgi very slow

This box should produce graphs a ton faster than the above data

How may config files do you have or is this one big mrtg.cfg?
How many targets are in each config file?

What I found works pretty well is breaking your config files into
pieces and specifying the config file and/or directory and/or target
in the link to 14all via the cfg, dir, and log parameters. 14all 
seems to run a lot slower with big configs.

You can implement speedy cgi, but IMHO I don't think it will get
you _that_ much of a performance increase. I have it running on my
public mrtg box and couldn't really tell the difference between 
before and after speedycgi although I didn't do any real timing
tests. Nonetheless, it's really easy to implement, so you might 
want to give it a shot. You can get speedycgi from:
http://daemoninc.com/SpeedyCGI/

My box is a PIII-450 and it will produce a 28 graph index page in 
about 15 seconds. You can hit it at http://mrtg.gvolk.com to see
what I'm talking about. The biggest index (28) is under 
Switch -> All Targets.

On the above page, I'm only using one config file for everything.
I do this because there just aren't that many graphs on that site.
At work where I poll 7000+ targets every five minutes, I have my 
config files split up, per device and 14all really benefits from 
that.
