This documentation is aimed at client developers, so I think talking about module logging isn't really appropriate here. Also, I don't remember rate limiting having effect on the udev module logging in particular, even though it generates lots of output. I suggest the following text: "If defined, do not rate limit the logging output. Rate limiting skips certain log messages when their frequency is considered too high." How does that sound to you? -- Tanu
