So it sounds like as long as I'm not obnoxious about my processes, I am
cool. I will be monitoring under 100 hosts (ping and possibly one to three
services, such as SMTP, HTTP, FTP, etc).  In a couple of cases, I'll be
checking a URL or logging in a database.

As long as I keep it to 1x for every 5 minutes, I should be ok, right?
