Thank you for your suggestion! Our Observium installation is virtualized using KVM on CentOS. Can you share what changes you needed to make? Did you have to make your changes on the Linux host or guest? Or was it a VMware nerd knob?

Subject: Re: [Observium] Gaps in Graphs
It sounds like you are getting a large amount of udp traffic at one time.
We run our observium server as a vmware guest. We had to do a fair bit of tuning to get udp and rx buffers to a point where we weren't losing responses (& in your case, syslog messages).
Might be worth looking into.
