not at all.  I sucked the data from a "proprietary" source using a perl
script, and in the script I just called rrdtool to add the data sample
by sample to the RRD.

The only downside was that the data was in "high res" - varying sampling
up to 100ms.  rrdtool only handles 1s data, so I had to do some
"playing" to get it to look right.  Since the output was for daily /
weekly / monthly overviews, the loss of precision didn't matter.
