Hello Team, I am new to this group and I have a query on adding the throttle attribute in syslog-ng.conf file. My target is little slow to process all the messages sent by the sender and sometimes the link connected to the target device is broken. I am thinking of slowing down the sender by adding the throttle attribute. I have the below queries: 1) What exactly the throttle confoguration does? 2) What does throttle(500) mean ? will it send 500 Bytes per second or 500 messages per second? What does the message here mean ? Can it be the entire message sent by the application ? Is there an upper limit and lower limit ? 3) Any side effect of my system if I am going to use throttle(). 4) Any other method in syslog-ng to delay the logs sending at the sender? 5) My destination configuration is below. Is it a valid configuration ? destination logFiler { file("/var/log/wq.log" template("${FULLDATE}${TZ} ${HOST} ${PROGRAM} [$LEVEL] ${MSG}\n") template_escape(yes) throttle(500));}; Thank you for your time. Regards Simon
