sorry, took this the wrong way :/

You restared collectd, right? You can check the current queue length
using something like that:
  netstat -ln | grep Recv-Q; while sleep 1; do netstat -ln | grep 25826; done

If the queue is always empty, the problem is somewhere else.

Can you tell me a bit more about the machine you're using and how many
RRD files you're updating? How much memory do you have? How many CPUs
are installed? And so on ;)
