Sometimes it takes a while for the collector to start doing its
thing.

Then you will want to use a good realtime performance tool, not a
fault management tool.  

NetView excels at fault management.  It is not nor likely will it ever
be a good historical or real-time performance reporting tool.  It has
historical performance graphing capabilities, but they are of the "gas
pedal and brakes" variety.
