What is this?
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
This is a rewrite of commonly used plugins in C as a single binary. The
|
||||||
|
purpose is reducing resource usage:
|
||||||
|
* disk space: the binary is smaler than the plugins together
|
||||||
|
* more diskspace: it has no dependencies on other programs
|
||||||
|
* less forks: it does not fork internally
|
||||||
|
* faster startup: it doesn't start perl or shell
|
||||||
|
* less memory: just a small C program
|
||||||
|
* less file accesses: one binary for many plugins
|
||||||
|
This can be useful for machines with restricted resources like embedded
|
||||||
|
machines.

After compiling there will be binary munin-plugins-busybox. You can just

||||||
|
replace symlinks in /etc/munin/plugins/ with symlinks to this binary.
