What you are describing appears pretty close to what the free RRDtool was designed for (Platform independent AND free!). If you use that, you get amazing performance, as well as automatic database pruning/aging, and zero maintainance, because the database size never changes. You also get graphing tools built-in! If you are analyzing for trends, rather than absolute data points, then this is the tool to use. ..to maintain is to slowly feel your soul, sanity and sentience ebb away as you become one with the Evil.
