DSSTATS plugin causing poll times to increase substantially.

Post by chadd »

Here are my stats. First with DSSTATS plugin installed/enabled:

Here are my stats after disabling/uninstalling it in plugin-management:

05/31/2012 09:50:34 AM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:33.8082 Method:spine Processes:8 Threads:15 Hosts:933 HostsPerProcess:117 DataSources:301869 RRDsProcessed:0

This is substantial. Does anyone know if this is normal? I am not using DSSTATS right now anyway, but planned to in the future. Thanks for any input.

In case you are wondering about the effects of reducing the number of processes, and increasing the number of threads, there was no real difference in poll times. I am now at 2 processes and 15 threads, and the poll times are as follows:
