[SR-Users] Log levels severely impacts performance

[Amit]

Jeremy,
Thank you for sharing your experience.
I did a little digging on multitool and only found the manpage, but not very much on how to install it. It doesn’t seem to be available via the yum package manager
Would you mind sharing some info on installation and how you run it to capture stderr and stdout?
Thank you and much appreciated.
Amit

I was just dealing with this behavior. I was logging to a local rsyslog
and rsyslog was just writing to a file on a local ssd (unsynced).

It's a ton of log.  But meh.

I disabled syslog entirely and enabled log_stderror = yes

Then I just captured stdout+stderr via multilog and write it to a file
on the disk.  The problem went away.

I think there is some huge overhead in the way kam packages up the log
and sends it out to syslog.
