Use fc-cache -f -v
to rebuild the font information cache files after a Mac OS X upgrade. This rebuilds the font cache files so RRDgraph can build its PNG files faster. It seems this is required after some Mac OS X upgrades such as to 10.6.3. The symptom is very very slow, at least 30 seconds to build one RRDgraph PNG file before the rebuild. If you are using rrdtool
from macports, be sure to run /opt/local/bin/fc-cache -f -v
. If using Homebrew, run /usr/local/bin/fc-cache -f -v
.

I had the same problem on a newly installed Solaris. Rebuilding the font cached fixed it. Thank you!
