[syslog-ng] Multi-core use in threaded mode

Hi, 

is threading enabled? It is off by default.
Try: 
options {threaded(yes) ; };

Also, scaling depends on the sources/destinations you use. For example, a tcp source can scale only if you have multiple clients that send messages to the same source.

Regards, 

Robert
