[PATCH] Re: [syslog-ng] time_sleep()

[Vaibhav Goel]

That did the trick.  I was going through the code and I suspected that
was the problem in cfg-grammar.y but I am no code monkey so I let it be
;-)

Thanks again for your help.  Now I hope that this parameter will help
bring down the CPU load on one of my loghosts (it has a whole bunch of
parallel connections).

Thanks,

And my patch was missing the documentation update, which I've obtained 
by fraud from the marvellous syslog-ng-2 tree.

And attached is the better version for Bazsi to apply if he's inclined 
to do so. This is about the third time I've chased down a parser-based 
bug, so I wonder if using (f)lex/yacc for this really pays off ;)?

Considering my state of mind, I reckon I could be really off the track 
with this patch as well ...
