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

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. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
