Finally getting a chance to revisit this.
I'm still seeing the problem.

If I run loggen like so:
/www/svn/loggen -r 600 -D -I 30 127.0.0.1 514
average rate = 607.51 msg/sec, count=18226, time=30.012, msg size=256,
bandwidth=151.88 kB/sec

I only get around 8k messages:
wc -l /var/log/logzilla/syslog.log
8740 /var/log/logzilla/syslog.log


I've tried bumping up flush_lines and the fifo but neither seemed to
make much of a difference.

Here's my config:
options {
      long_hostnames(off);
      log_msg_size(8192);
      flush_lines(1); # Note: I've tried this up to 1000
      log_fifo_size(35535);
      time_reopen(10);
      use_dns(yes);
      dns_cache(yes);
      use_fqdn(yes);
      keep_hostname(yes);
      chain_hostnames(no);
};

destination df_logzilla {
   file("/var/log/logzilla/syslog.log"
   template("$HOST\t$FACILITY\t$LEVEL\t$TAG\t$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY\t$HOUR:$MIN:$SEC\t$PROGRAM\t$MSG\n")
   );
};

log {
   source(s_all);
      destination(df_logzilla);
};

What do you get if you send the loggen data to a simple netcat session with
its output redirected to a flat file?  Do you see all 55k messages using wc
-l?

I should have mentioned that this is logging directly to a file.

destination df_logzilla {
   file("/var/log/logzilla/syslog.log"

template("$HOST\t$FACILITY\t$LEVEL\t$TAG\t$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY\t$HOUR:$MIN:$SEC\t$PROGRAM\t$MSG\n")
   );
};

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to run a test to check insert rates.
If I run this command:

./loggen -r 5000 -D -I 10 127.0.0.1 514

The output shows:
average rate = 5441.60 msg/sec, count=54420, time=10.007, msg size=256,
bandwidth=1360.40 kB/sec

But, my stats don't show that many messages received:

syslog-ng[6660]: Log statistics; dropped=\'pipe(/dev/xconsole)=0\',
processed=\'center(queued)=24232\', processed=\'center(received)=8077,
processed=\'destination(df_logzilla)=8077\'

As you can see, it sent 55k messages, but I only received 8k.
Am I doing something wrong?

Here are my options in the syslog-ng config:
options {
      long_hostnames(off);
      log_msg_size(8192);
      flush_lines(1);
      log_fifo_size(16384);
      time_reopen(10);
      use_dns(yes);
      dns_cache(yes);
      use_fqdn(yes);
      keep_hostname(yes);
      chain_hostnames(no);
      perm(0644);
     stats_freq(60);

};
