[syslog-ng] threading question

[Jim Hendrick]

Hi,

   Could someone help clarify something for me?

I am running with threading enabled, and I have separate redis 
destinations (three currently) all pointing to the same server. My 
thought was that each destination would use a separate connection and 
thread.
I then filter log sources and send (roughly) 1/3 to each destination.

My question is this. Does each destination get a separate thread? 
(reading the documentation it left room for doubt).

Also - more generally is this a reasonable way to get better throughput 
to a redis data store?

(note: both syslog-ng and redis are running locally, so the connections 
use 'localhost')

Thanks!
Jim
