The file destination of syslog-ng is capable of handling 5000-6000
logs/sec. But if you have problems, you can open an issue on Github.

AFAIK there are no tools for visualizing logs in case of file destination.
However, if logs could be forwarded using ElasticSearch destination, Kibana
could be used to visualize logs. Also, if you configure a mongodb
destination, you can use mojology (https://github.com/algernon/mojology).
