How can I tweak this for more speed?
What are some typical numbers for larger numbers of targets ?
I just guessed at the threads and processes.

Re: Optimizing Spine
Spine processes (6 in your current config) start threads (each spine process starts 20 threads).
I dont thinkg you need anything to optimize - 19 seconds to collect 83347 counters from 202 is quite good
But if you still want to make it more optimized - try to identify what exactly takes more time polling from devices or updating rrd-files? Do you use only snmp for polling or some server scripts as well?

Re: Optimizing Spine
I guess you can always configure more processes. I did that a few months ago and noticed it killed my cpu (lol), but times got lower. In any case, I wouldn't worry for any polling process that takes less than 25 sec. In fact I did use that difference to DECREASE poller's efficency and give my cores a break

You might also check your disk IO during that period. If processes are having to wait to write to disk, then you will probably benefit from the boost plugin.
