I have a need to do a 5600+ node deployment of Smokeping. Meaning that I have 5600 devices to ping. Some 10% -20% have high latency 1000ms+. Currently I have about 1200 nodes in smokeping. This is a new build. I am building this on a OpenSuse 11.4 x86_64 platform. I am running into problems.
1. SpeedyCGI does not compile on this version of Suse even after my best effort. I have attempted to make use of fastCGI, but I dont know that I am doing it right. The menu(smokeping.cgi) is large. Its by State then City in my config. It maxes out my cpu (1 of 4) when you open smokeping, because of this, page load times are pretty slow and it will only get worse as I add more nodes.

2. Because of the number of nodes, fping poller does not finish in 300 seconds. I have blazemode enabled. Is there a way to run multiple fping probes or increase parallelization? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
3. If smokeping cant practically scale to this size, Does anyone have an open sourced suggestion. I am also running cacti and it has scaled rather well.
