While that may be the case, SEC can handle a lot more than just syslog
files. There is a -blocksize argument to SEC:

   -blocksize=<io_block_size>
         size of the block in bytes that SEC will attempt  to  read  from
         input  files  at  once.  Default  is 1024 (i.e., read from input
         files by 1KB blocks).

that can be set to increase the number of bytes read in a single
sysread call. When you have a very active log file increasing that to
slurp as many lines as possible a single read can speed up SEC
processing quite dramatically.
