[rtg] Traffic is wrapping

[John Von Essen]

yrtg looks interesting... didn't know it existed.

Does anyone know if anyone has tried to tackle a pgsql implementation 
with any success?

Out of curiosity, at what point (say, interface count) does scalability 
start to become an issue? Right now I monitor 30 FE interfaces across 2 
routers (7600 series) with 5 minute polling - and haven't noticed any 
problems. Will I start to see some soon or is scalability problem much 
higher in the interface/device count range?

Thanks
John
