I also have this problem and the result of it is some rather large log files: -rw-rw-r-- 1 hobbit hobbit 356M Mar 20 12:46 rrd-data.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 hobbit hobbit 3.5G Mar 20 12:46 rrd-status.log
This happens on hobbit 4.2.0 (unpatched) and the latest snapshot of 4.3.0.
Kind regards,
Sebastian

I assume that whatever is calling rrd is running too quickly and so calling it in the same tick rather than waiting one before doing it.
Can this be fixed?
