[syslog-ng] Flow-control

[Anton Koldaev]

For example at one moment of time I see the following values(with
flow-control disabled):
dst_syslog.total.stored:      10000 (msg)
dst_syslog.total.dropped:    12179 (msg per min)
dst_syslog.total.processed: 183800 (msg per min)

How should flow-control help me here?
