What if the users does not have any of those tools installed?
Do we tell them "install Ganglia, but not the graphing, only the
monitoring".
Ah and as this does not cope well with WildFly 94 please install
collectd on top?
From my perspective, there's no point in writing collectd/ganglia/...
plugins for JBoss middleware projects.
The value I see in integrating with third party collectors is that users
may have their own scripts/plugins or use one of their many community
plugins.
Running many of the small tools in parallel also has a cost. Similar
to forking hundreds and thousands of shell commands.
I'm not sure about others, but you could run a few collectd processes in
parallel and still have a lower memory footprint than a single JVM :)
