[syslog-ng] few questions about patterndb

Okay, i already had the feeling patterndb was not the one really  
giving me a solution. I simply need something to bring down the  
relevant loglines, since 1.5M lines/month in a logfile/different  
logfiles are simply much to much to monitor/read.

Grepping after "error" or "warning" or "failure" is just one approach,  
but never will be the only one, since this might kick out things i  
wanna definitely see.

currently i'm looking at logfiles and size down the amount of lines by  
piping the cat output into sed, which kicks out the informational and  
overhead lines. this ia an iterative apporach, since i refine the sed  
expression time to time.

How are others managing this issue?
