what might be a problem if "poller_boost.php -f -d" simply does nothing?
Only statistics page get's updated with information about "Last Start Time".
It displays nothing and it isn't proccessing any rrds, while everything else works fine (rrd's get updated when graphs are opened, info is being fed to poller_output_boost table and image cache directory is growing).
The problem is poller_output_boost has grown to much an and without mass rrd update sooner or later it will lead to crash and loss of data.
