Just trying to understand, this page 
https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/master/rainerscript/queue_parameters.html says for 
example:
queue.highwatermark number  .... default 90% of queue size.
The queue .size default is 1000.  So, if you don't specify queue.highwatermark 
does the default kick in? If not, how do you get a queue.highwatermark  default 
of 90%?
