Hi ,

I see that we can configure prometheus to have different scraping
intervals for different jobs.

Do you see any performance degradation? w.r.to memory or CPU usage of
the prometheus if i configure two jobs one has 15s as scraping
interval and another one has 60s has scraping interval. or having a
single scraping interval is better for prometheus performance.

Could you please provide your inputs.

Regards,
Rajesh.

It makes no difference to have different intervals. Prometheus schedules each target individually, so performance only depends on the total number of targets.
