I've been working on designing a Syslog/Metalog replacement and this fits the budget ;) The main problem was that I wanted to use multiple threads so that log processing didn't cause any backlog of msgs in in/output, and this is exactly what I needed. I plan on setting up a custom library to read the 2 linux logging interfaces asynchronously, as well as a simple async SQLite library. (Does anyone think having SQLite as async output format is important? In previous experience, some file-system's FSYNC performance is horrible, so I don't want that stalling things). I think this oughtta get plenty of testing, since it'll be a long-running process ;) -- Thomas Harning Jr. Fortune: Just don't make the '9' format pack/unpack numbers... :-) -- Larry Wall in <199710091434.HAA00838@wall.org>
