Hi,
I've just started to try out the merlin system and I must say it seems 
very promising :-)
We've been running poller/noc topology using nsca and a caching 
"submitter" which until now actually scales quite nice.(at least in 
nagios 3x)

I have a couple of questions:
Running current git version and nagios 3.2.

1. When benchmarking, running very many hosts, I sometimes see the 
following message:

Nulling OOB ptr 0. type: 0; offset: 0x1000000; len: 272; overshot with 
16776944 bytes

and this one:

send(7, (buf + total), 22, MSG_DONTWAIT | MSG_NOSIGNAL) returned -1 
(Resource temporarily unavailable)

What does this mean?

2. From my understanding, the NOC will disable checks when a poller 
connects (having correctly configured hostgroup/hosts/services)
However i see that the NOC is performing servicechecks/hostchecks

Will the noc enable checks when it loses connection to the poller?

Is there a configuration option I've missed?
