Hi Sebastian,
Just to add one thing, your most concerning problem in 2.x series with a
lot of hosts polling very often is likely to be hosts checks as they are
not parallelized. On the latest box I set up I'm polling every minutes
and as soon as there is a few unreachable hosts Nagios starts lagging.
My workaround for now is to manually disable active host checks on them
though there are many other options (I'm mainly thinking of removing the
host check and using event handlers to set the host UP/DOWN, though you
may want to test how that affect UNREACHABLE state).
This has been addressed in the upcoming 3.0 release but it's still in
alpha stage.
Thomas
