Thanks you!

I read your article at SunWorld and that you proposed doing NFS mounts. Our
internal network is unpredictable so we can't do that to the production
machines. I was thinking of running the orcallator.se on the hosts, the
files over to the machine and run orca to generate the graphs on a nightly
basis. I will take your advise and increase the memory on the system. Orca
is really useful and we love it!

I have run into this situation many times.  As the number of
hosts and orcallator.se data files generated, Orca uses a
ton of memory.  While I am working on a version of Orca
that uses significantly less memory, my current solution is
to split the hosts up into groups and run Orca on a box
with lots of memory.  I have some 170 hosts being monitored
via Orca.
