Your server that has Observium on it. Not the Virtual Host.
Mine runs fine with more devices. I have 2 Cores with Hyper Threading and 8 GB RAM.
I have over 5000 interfaces.
It could also be your swap. Go to your CLI and type fdisk –l to show you how much swap you have.
administrator@network-monitoring:/$ sudo fdisk –l
Disk /dev/mapper/network--monitoring--vg-swap_1: 8585 MB, 8585740288 bytes

How much swap do I need?
As a base minimum, it's highly recommended that the swap space should be equal to the amount of physical memory (RAM). Also, it's recommended that the swap space is twice the amount of physical memory (RAM) depending upon the amount of hard disk space available for the system (although this "recommendation" dates back from a time when physical RAM was very expensive and most Unix systems ran with many processes in swap space - a situation that hardly applies in most situations these days, but ancient Unix/Linux myths like this "recommendation" tend to survive well past their "use by" dates). In reality, if you use hibernation you need what was outlined in the relevant paragraph above, otherwise you need as much swap space as your system will use - which actually may be very little in a modern hardware setup. The only downside to having more swap space than you will actually use is the disk space you will be reserving for it.
Example Scenarios
Low RAM and low disk space With 512 MiB RAM and 30 GB hard disk, use 512 MiB for swap since RAM is very low.
Low RAM and high disk space With 512 MiB RAM and 100 GB hard disk, use 1 GiB for swap since RAM is very low and hard disk space is plentiful.
High RAM and low disk space With 2 GiB RAM and 30 GB hard disk, use 1 GiB for swap since hard disk space is very low.
High RAM and high disk space With 2 GiB RAM and 100 GB hard disk, use 2 GiB for swap since hard disk space is plentiful.
