http://www.boutell.com/gd/ ] and a RRD round robin database [ http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/ ]. So I decided to create my own protocol to in a simple text file used as a log file, this file will register all the requests from the crontab when execute PHP, once finished triger another script to read the file and parse the output into a graphics using the GD & RRD. Everything works great I can successfully mimic all the charts from MRTG in the PHP Network Based monitoring Tool. 8 years later here we are talking about Ruby & Rails, looking at the project of New Relic [ http://www.newrelic.com/RPM.html ] looks like a good area of opportunity for monitoring applications, the question of the million is how to use GD & RRD to mimic & register rails performance applications in your application without have to go out to a third party website, and most important keep all the performance charts for future reference !!!. Doesn''t this sound like a fun project???, I have some idea on how to start and what could it be important for a Rails App. to monitor like memory usage, maybe extend to the most used page., maybe needs to extend to the Application/View/Controller level to track those indicators, I''m not sure from the variable point of view but if you have something in mind please reply your ideas, really like to read your opinion.
