The machine we run HAProxy on is approaching its limits in terms of
disk I/O due to our debug-level logging.
The CPU is barely used, memory is no problem at all - the bottleneck
will soon be the rate at which we can log to disk. Because the machine
is more than adequate in all other areas, we'd really like to reduce
the I/O load of logging.
We are using the debug log output to tell us the response time and
status code for various URLs - this is an essential task we can't do
without.
Is there any way to get this information without logging and
post-processing every request? Can HAProxy dump out averaged
statistics like this? Can we somehow reduce the I/O load by just
logging the exact fields we're interested in?
Many thanks!

Not exactly haproxy related, but have you tried mounting the partition
where you're logging to with noatime ?
