[rtg] Revisiting RTG....

[Quigley, Mark R]

I had good results with the Google code on my new Red Hat system; the
new poller has no memory leaks like what I inherited from my predecessor
who obtained his code from sourceforge. See previous posts (I asked the
same question back in June/July).

depends on who you ask. if you search the archives you'll see you have
two (well, three, really) options. for all its other faults, the latest
cvs on sourceforge plus some patches floating around on the list have
worked solidly for myself and others.

I use postgresql so I can't comment; other than to say switch to
postgres (:

without knowing your setup, I'm going to say disk I/O. creating proper
indexes can really speed up rtgplot, and also eat up disk space
potentially.
