[syslog-ng] syslog-ng consumes a lot of cpu

[C. L. Martinez]

HI all,

 I have installed syslog-ng 3.3.8 under an OpenBSD with a simple configuration:

@version: 3.3

options {
        log_fifo_size(30000);
        use_dns (no);
        use_fqdn (no);
        keep_hostname (yes);
};


# Define what files to be monitored
source s_network {
        tcp(port(10514) flags(no-multi-line));
};


# Define filters



# Define default destinations
destination d_ossec_fifo {
        pipe("/var/log/syslog.fifo");
};


#
# Default log actions
#

log {
        source(s_network);
        log { destination(d_ossec_fifo); flags(flow-control,final); };
};

but it is consuming a lot of CPU:

load averages:  1.13,  1.09,  1.08

                      obsdhost 11:17:49

Any idea why??
