That might work in some cases, but is still going to fall over with
a large number of hosts clustered around it. 

Changing the default radius would be a better fix, although it would
require it to be configurable.  Calculating the default radius so
there are no overlaps would be the best solution. 

As a quick fix, however, invent some dummy parents to go between your
Nagios server and the monitored hosts.  The more dummies in between,
the larger the effective radius when you get to the real host.  You
could make the dummies just check the server Nagios is running on to
see if it's alive.  It's a kluge and a little ugly, but prettier than
the circles so overlapped you can't see them. 

I would actually prefer one of the tree layouts, if only they were
rotated 90 degrees anti-clockwise to make the scrolling easy.
