Of course you are correct, here's one of the services. According to the site log, it looks like Nagios is firing off three to four requests to the server, each time it's being checked. These log entries are all from one vhost log file, so it's not like Nagios is checking 4 sites, it's checking the same site 4 times at once.<div>
