Review system integration default metrics collection frequency #6825

Hi,

We saw the system integration metrics causing performance issues on multiple linux production servers.

The default settings are collection data too regularly. Every 60-120 seconds is okay, not every 10 seconds. The integration was using 30% CPU on production servers.

System socket_summary metrics and System network metrics need reducing to every 5 minutes. These were causing most of the CPU. The CPU usage reduces to 15% when we increased the time to 5 minutes.

IT weren't happy.

Thanks

Hi! We just realized that we haven't looked into this issue in a while. We're sorry! We're labeling this issue as Stale to make it hit our filters and make sure we get back to it as soon as possible. In the meantime, it'd be extremely helpful if you could take a look at it as well and confirm its relevance. A simple comment with a nice emoji will be enough :+1. Thank you for your contribution!
