Hello,

maybe my post wasn't specific enough...
well, I'm still trying to validate logstash and still I'm loosing up to 40% 
of logs:
- 10000 logs injected.
- 10000 logs detected by tcpdump (listening on port 514)
- 6000-10000 documents created in elasticsearch index.

is there a way to count, in logstash, the number of event that were process 
and forwarded to elasticsearch ?

Thanks

Antoine
