I need to introduce some new functionality to my webapp app, and I'm not quite sure if i can do it in MP. Hoping someone here can offer a suggestion.

essentially, I have a high traffic syndicated image server that is currently serving from a vanilla apache instance.
right now, its not logging anything - but i need to change that.

i not need to log some basic request info ( comparable to what is in the access log ) , along with the value of a certain cookie if it exists- for later parsing ( faster than tossing into a db )

composing the info i need to log under mp is trivial

i'm a bit uneasy about actually logging to a file though-- it looks like under a prefork model ( i need 2+ servers to handle this ), i'd need to lock / open / write / close / unlock the log file per request

does anyone know of a facility that will let me just log straightforward ?

if not, i can hack this together using a non-apache server pretty quickly. i'd rather just limit my configuration files though :)
