        4. Carried out detail performance analysis of the code. Tried to make the code run faster, by eliminating unecessary instructions. The details of the performance analysis can be found at https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/IEPM/PingER+Smokeping+IntegrationImage Added. We have decide it to run for SLAC only hosts in order to test it for the time being. The results of the analysis shows that it takes 2 hours on average to update all the (536 SLAC to rest of the world RRDs) and will consume approximately 250 MB of disk space.
