Performance Issues with CactiEZ

[gandalf]

Cacti can't do anything concerning latency of a remote host. Even threading won't help.
You only may spawn multiple spine processes.
But an unresponsive host will block the process that is polling that very host and may affect all subsequently polled hosts.
When trying to go 1 minute polling, unresponsive hosts are a nogo. Please take care to carefully plan timeout setting for hosts, especially when using scripts that have deviating timeout settings (e.g. on system commands used by those scripts).
