I put those messages in.
Firstly, 40 doesn't necessarily mean there are 40 concurrent service
checks running as they may have finished but not been reaped yet (to
decrement the counter).
Secondly, if you are getting these messages, then either (1) this
limit is too low - increase and keep an eye of the load on your nagios
server; (2) you've got too many checks running - reduce frequencies/
numbers or setup a slave server.
The trouble with the way the nudging works is that it hides the fact
that you have latency issues (as the check is rescheduled to a future
time). This means nagiostats will not include the additional latency
time here.
If someone has a better way of working this out, I'm all ears.
