New PRTG 7.2.2 Beta version is available, includes performance and memory usage improvements
With version 7.2.2 we will introduce several performance and memory usage improvements. These changes will affect all installations, regardless of the number of sensors, but will be most notable for installations with thousands of sensors. In order to make these improvements available as early as possible for users of PRTG that currently experience memory or performance issues we are publishing beta versions of V7.2.2. The most notable change in the new version is the reduced CPU load for the PRTG core server process. For some of our test systems the cpu load of this process has dropped by 90% (!) compared to V7.2.1. This results in an overall faster system and web interface. And it will allow setting up much larger installations, too.2009-Oct- 9
