AlertStack State set to Enable?

Hi Folks,

I need some clarification and sharing of what will happen when I enable this feature when there are no alerts triggered in my environment.

Will there be any performance degradation when there are multiple alerts triggered?

I believe this was just a "just in case" you don't look after your alerts, so if you have thousands of active alerts i would sort that first. I have enabled this on multiple platforms with no issues though

Imagine it as you press that button, and a robot made of your primary server's CPU starts evaluating alerts in your environment as potentially-related. If you've got 2 alerts, it hasnt got a lot of thinking to do. If you get 1000/sec then it's got a lot of thinking to do. This scales based on the depth of the environment too, I think part of the algorithm is like for each alert, go up and down the dependencies tree, if there's stuff with alerts at a similar time within said tree it may be related.
