Hi,

You should take a look at
https://www.balabit.com/sites/default/files/documents/syslog-ng-ose-3.8-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-v3.8-guide-admin/html-single/index.html#chapter-multithreading
which has some performance tuning tips. And while it's for syslog-ng PE and
quite old, this performance guideline also useful:
