A upgrade of rrdtool to the 1.2 version wandered in somehow about the same time. That version seems to need a higher version of python than is on RHEL3, and munin ended up using massive resources whenever it updated. The Intel and Epia boxes tolerated it, while the athlons ended up in some kind of an infinite loop and died.
Reverting to 1.0.5 rrdtool version on the athlons fixed the problem. Although the 1.2 and 1.5 versions do run on the Intel and EPIA boxes, the 1.0.5 version of rrdtool uses substantially less cpu time to execute.
I think that the newer versions are more appropriate for RHEL4, since this problem is not apparent on an EL4 box.
