Package: cacti-spine
Version: 1.1.37-2~bpo9+1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
	We have several services being checked that return more than 1024 bytes (with_resluts_buffer limit of cacti-spine). This makes it so information doesn't get catalouged by cacti.  
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
	We use several different scripts, two of which  is a vanrish check: https://github.com/glensc/cacti-template-varnish and percona https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-monitoring-plugins/LATEST/cacti/creating-graphs.html. I assume there are many more packages that require a results_buffer more than 1024 bytes
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
	The poller should reliably store information more than 1024 bytes. I believe the solution is to increase the default compile option of the with_results_buffer to at least 2048 bytes as services grow to return more data.
