Yes. Our recommendation is to aim for as close to 300 seconds as possible for the poller duration, that way you're not creating periods of high and low load slowing down the web ui.

(my interpretation of it)
The colours are just an easy way to see which devices are taking longer to discover/poll.
The percentage is based around the longest individual device time (that is currently up/responding). The slowest active device gets 100% and all of the others are scored based on their fractional time taken.
I have a device that is down with a poller of 139%.
It helps to identify if you could do with more pollers (ie. you have more devices red/orange than you have poller threads), or if you just have one or two rogue devices that are taking excessively long to process (in which case, perhaps consider disabling some modules/mibs for that device).
Don't forget to keep in mind that you want the complete poller cycle to complete in under 5 minutes. I wouldn't bother trying to tune rogue devices unless they are creeping up on that 5 minute mark. It can also be somewhat beneficial (if a little counter-intuitive) to "slow down" the poller cycle so that it is near 5 minutes for a complete run; this reduces the overall load on your Observium box and means it won't go unresponsive trying to deal with huge spikes every polling interval.
Hope this helps,
Michael

Dear Observium community,
Can someone shed some light on the meaning of color coding used in
the poller page please ?

I can gather on my own that colors seem to indicate some kind of
performance result : GREEN is good, BLUE or PURPLE is average, RED is bad. I don’t understand what the percentage figures seem to indicate.
Are those in any way related to poller performance issues on the NMS
server ? meaning, does that imply that I should maybe increase NMS server ressources (CPU, memory, etc.) ?
Thank you.
