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%?
