Syslog-ng seems to do a dns lookup for every syslog packet it receives. 
Baszi, would it be possible to include some sort of short-time dns cache in 
syslog-ng, so that it'll only check for updated dns records, say, every 
minute? I currently use a local dnscache (dnscache from the djbdns suite) 
which does it's job fine, but it would be neat if this gets also included 
in syslog-ng (removes another point of possible failure).



best regards
