Dear list, I shall build up a central syslog server able to do 5.000 log lines per second peak, 1.000 sustained. I found some pages describing current syslog-ng with magic "log to file then insert": http://ben.muppethouse.com/SYSLOG-DOC.html http://www.kdough.net/docs/syslog_postgresql/ But according to syslog, they will release the "direct syslog to postgresql" feature soon: http://www.balabit.com/network-security/syslog-ng/ Anyway, I'd like to know if anybody has a syslog-ng with postgresql that does up to 5000 inserts/s, and what hardware I need for that. Of course, some selects for statistical purposes must also be possible, so not only writes here. Any ideas? mfg zmi -- Michael Monnerie it-management.at 0676 846914 666 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
