udp2log-domas-multithread-2010-10-05.patch
Currently, our squid logging solution (udp2log) will start dropping packets when the configuration gets slightly complicated. This has limited our ability to log many things we'd like to log.
Given that the machine running udp2log (locke) isn't CPU-bound yet, we believe we can gain some headway by making udp2log multithreaded.
