  > Why not just run InfluxDB and Chronograf on one of the CHIPs? I started off with a single C.H.I.P. and ran everything on it but then when I added a second C.H.I.P. I wanted to have all the data in a central location. I also found Chronograf lag a lot when trying to browse more than a couple day's worth of data. The Raspberry Pi has much faster storage and CPU. > How are you sending data to the Pi?
