In some cases, it would be preferable to store multiple data points for a source rather than "key:value". A example could be polling the `php-fpm` status page, where a config example might look like:

```xml
LoadPlugin curl_json

Instance "fpm"

Type "http_requests"

Type "listen_queue"

Type "active_processes"

Type "total_processes"

```

What you'd optimally want here is storing queue len, active processes and total processes in one rrd, for instance similar to the `processes` plugin.
