Skip, Thanks for the detailed post indicating what stuff you find useful, and what stuff you don't need. It seems that your use case is fairly unusual, so I completely understand that you have optimized how you use logging. I will consider how to try to incorporate your feedback without breaking backwards compatibility, but it will probably not be via the 'extra' mechanism I proposed. For example, to avoid thread and process computation, I could introduce module-level variables eg. log_threads and log_processes, both set to true to maintain backwards compatibility, but settable to false to avoid expensive thread and process computations where not needed. The 'extra' mechanism will remain to provide additional diagnostic information where e.g. the same code is executed by multiple threads and there is a need to distinguish the different threads in the logging output.
