Naveen, Need some additional information to help. How many messages per sec are arriving at your NG server? Can you post the section of the syslog-ng.conf file showing your sources?

The syslog-ng has around 750 match rules in its configuration. Based on these rules the syslogs are forwarded to the destinations. Also, there is one rule to write all the received syslogs to disk. We are receiving syslogs at the rate of 300 eps. The issue is that we are seeing that syslog-ng is not able to process the syslogs and forward them to the destinations. It is not writing to the disk also. We are seeing that there is a big delay after which some syslogs are getting written to the disk. We are seeing loss of UDP packets. The UDP buffer size is big enough. net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 4194304 16777216 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 98304 4194304 16777216 net.core.rmem_default = 234217728 net.core.wmem_default = 234217728 net.core.rmem_max = 234217728 net.core.wmem_max = 234217728 net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 1 net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 32768 61000 fs.file-max = 2097152 net.core.optmem_max = 40960 net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 50000 net.ipv4.udp_rmem_min = 8192 net.ipv4.udp_wmem_min = 8192 We need help to resolve this issue. We are using open-source syslog-ng in our setup.
