I have some fairly large logs to crunch (40-50Mb each, maybe 6 or more
analysed together) and analog is taking a long time (several hours) to
'crunch' these. However, the machine's not busy and analog is showing
as using 0% CPU.
My suspicion is that analog may be throttling DNS queries but this is
only a guess. Something seems to be causing it to take a long time to
complete although it's clearly not working hard on the data.
As the analog documentation mentions, "Because analog's DNS lookups use
only standard, platform-independent code, they are slower than lookups
optimised for particular platforms. (This is especially true on
platforms without the DNSTIMEOUT command described below.)"
For larger log files you may want to look at the helper applications at
http://www.analog.cx/helpers/index.html#dns instead.
