<sales-pitch> I think this functionality is something that's been missing from Apache for a long time, so I find it to be essential. It would also enable third party module writers (e.g. mod_accounting and mod_watch) to rely on the fact that the accurate numbers of input and output bytes per request are always recoreded, given that mod_log_config is "very standard". The additions are also fairly lightweight, thanks to suggestions by Ryan and Justin, so I don't think there are going to be major performance implications. Furthermore, my sinister plan involves writing a patch for webalizer if/when any of this becomes accepted into Apache. And that would mean that the I/O numbers would be in widespread use in no time at all :-) </sales-pitch> However, given that Apache has to make everyone happy (and I think that's a good thing, not a bad thing), maybe we can compromise and have a configuration flag (e.g. LogInputOutput on/off, default off), which will then be used in logio_pre_conn() to determine if the filters should/should not be inserted. Does that sound OK to you? If no, I'm OK with anything that gives me this functionality. This whole thing started of as mod_logio anyway...
