Can someone explain what the difference is between "queued" and "received"?

I'm looking at the difference between two different syslog-ng servers. On the light server, the queued and received counter always match. On the heavily loaded server the queued and received differ quite a bit:

processed='center(queued)=4988110' processed='center(received)=1103080'

Am I losing messages?

No, the central log dispatcher can issue a single message multiple times. So incoming messages 1103080, messages towards destinations 4988110. -- Bazsi
