Wow!! I am impressed.... we used to get 25K (25000) messages a day and while it has gone up since (the old days) we still suppress many many messages and the last time I looked it was 50,000 a day.

No wonder the cpu spins when you do a find.

I'm surprised, but it looks like on an "average" day the SYSLOG generates
1.3 million lines.

Subject: curious: message rate to z/OS SYSLOG/OPERLOG on a _large_ system?

This is just a curiosity question. "How many lines of SYSLOG output do you produce in an average day?" I just did a quick look at last week's SYSLOG and saw about 1.5 million lines for a 7 day period on two, rather small,
systems.

Why am I curious? From a previous thread on doing a "tail -f" on the z/OS SYSLOG. I got curious about how much overhead this would be. I was warned by some very knowledgeable people that it could be a truly massive number
of messages, and thus have high overhead.

Which is making me rethink a possible project that I am considering.
