I've been using impstats on a modest (60k+ mps) server, and haven't noticed any 
difference with stats enabled/disabled.

Subject: [rsyslog] mitigating periodic statistics perf impact

Hi folks,

I've recently moved several environments from syslog-ng to rsyslog, and
still working to fully integrate with various other tools like graphite
and elasticsearch.

As part of that, one of the things I was looking at was enabling impstats
for shoving metrics into graphite.  That said, the environments in
question are heavily utilized so I was wondering how much of a performance
impact this typically has for busier sites, and looking for good advice
along those lines (e.g. if it's ok to enable with proper tuning)?

For those running larger sites, how do you gather stats while minimizing
the performance impact?  I am coming from a newbie-just-read-the-docs
perspective -- seeing verbiage like "Note that loading this module has
impact on rsyslog performance. Depending on settings, this impact may be
noticeable (for high-load environments)" and not sure if it's a general
warning or if enabling impstats will really upset my users.  ;-)

Thanks for any guidance.
