I noticed that file compression is not currently implemented in syslog-ng 1.6.5.
Is file compression expected in the near future. I need integrated file
compression because writing from syslog, then reading to compress then writing the compressed
data is killing my disk io. 1 write, 1 read, ~1/3 write
If anybody has got something in cvs let me know.
I am interested in lzo compression rather then bz2 or z(gzip).
lzo it is about 1/2 space efficient as z, but it is also about 4 times faster.
Which suits my needs of realtime compression better.
