This contrasts with the current push model, where one has to tune things like batch sizes and retries in a way that doesn't overall the destination. Which is not really possible, because you can't control the load generated by queries, GC, and whatnot. Of course the pull model has its own caveats, but it would be nice to be able to choose what works best for every usecase. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
