Improve Sensors by Performance Impact overview

Votes:

0

At the moment it could be both unuseful and misleading if your high-impacting sensors are actually paused.

What do i need to know that 10,000 paused sensors have a strong impact on system performance?

This overview should just list active sensors

Hello there,

Thank you very much for your contact.

The overview of sensors sorted by their performance impact does not differentiate if a sensor is paused or not, because there is no check for the period of the paused state. A paused sensor does not produce workload on the Probe or Core Server.

Best,
Sebastian
