[syslog-ng] need help with a match filter

[Rory Toma]

In case it is not obvious, the problem I am trying to solve here is to 
not have tens of thousands of files in the same directory, which 
destroys performance. Is there another, built-in way that I don't know 
about to have syslog-ng do a hash on the destination filename and 
generate a directory automagically based on that?

thx
