You could pipe that command to the external commands file directly, but all that would save you is the page load time of the web GUI which *should* be negligible.

If you're using Nagios Core 3, I would highly recommend upgrading to Nagios Core 4 as there have been dramatic increases to performance across the board.

Can you share the output of the following commands executed from the CLI of your Nagios Core machine:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagiostats
free -m
df -h
cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor
They will give us some insights into how this system is configured.

This machine is pretty well provisioned. How long is it taking to update a given setting once you change it via the GUI?

The refresh_rate(default 90) can be set in /usr/local/nagios/etc/cgi.cfg. Restart the nagios service after any changes:

service nagios restart

You can lower it as you see fit but keep in mind that this may increase load on the machine which may be impactful depending the system. I would suggest keeping it at the default honestly or lowering it a bit at time until you find a happy medium.

Can you clarify what you mean when you say it hasn't helped? How far did you lower the value? Did you restart the service after making the change? Does it still take 20 seconds to update?
