While I have no objection to the patches, I am wondering if it is better
to throttle the messages. Say maybe 5 messages per 10 seconds,

Beyond that, I think we need to make the logging a bit smarter, as in
not reporting failures for processes which have already exited instead
of just removing all the failures. In some cases we might have a genuine
failure.

In the meantime, if there are no objections, I will look to merge these
patches in.

thanks,
