Ari Rabkin commented on CHUKWA-102:
-----------------------------------
Yes. The price of this approach is that you can't handle failures well, you
can't share connections between different appenders, and you can't gracefully
support anything where you don't control the logging. So I think for most
purposes the Agent design is an improvement. Obviously, there are cases where
you can change the log4j adaptor, and can't add a deamon, however.
I'm sort of skeptical that a DAG of collectors really helps you that much. The
thing is accomplishes is bounding the number of incoming connections per
collector; but it's not clear that that's a serious scaling limit.
