Re: [Question #198435]: Scaling to very large number of slowly updating metrics

 

Question #198435 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/198435

    Status: Open => Answered

Michael Leinartas proposed the following answer:
Bottlenecks with rawData=true (actually, you should use format=raw as
rawData is deprecated) or format=json will be similar in cases with many
metrics in the same request but will be significantly faster and less
resource hungry with many small requests of one or a few metrics (as
Graphite wont be performing the image rendering over and over).

BTW, check out this post by bkjones for an interesting Nagios use of a feature he implemented that will be released shortly:
