Hi,
I've been trying out packetbeat as a potential new relic replacement but I'm a bit afraid that CPU usage is a bit too high to use this in production.
I've installed this on one of my webservers and it's the highest consuming process on there:
It's also spawning panic errors like hell in /var/log/messages

Any things that I can change to lower cpu usage.. the other issue is probably something that needs to be fixed upstream
Thx
