Hi -

Even when nothing else is happening, and nothing is being logged, the syslog-ng service is consistently using up 50% of my cpu under a win2k host.

I've looked though the mailing list archives and also googled around a lot looking for a solution, but no one else seems to really have this problem. Has anyone there heard of anything like it?

Some info:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 jamro 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) 2008-03-05 19:27 i686 Cygwin

$ cygcheck -c syslog-ng
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
syslog-ng            2.0.7.1-1      OK


And here is my syslog-ng.conf:

$ cat /etc/syslog-ng.conf
options {
  keep_hostname(yes);
  chain_hostnames(no);
  owner("gravy");
  group("web");
  perm(0664);
  sync(0);
};

source applications {
  internal();
};

destination messages {
  file("/var/log/messages");
};

log {
  source(applications);
  destination(messages);
};

source s_teabag_port { tcp(port(30303)); };
destination teabag_loghost { tcp("192.168.10.25" port(30303)); };
log { source(s_teabag_port); destination(teabag_loghost); };

source s_teapot_port { tcp(port(30304)); };
destination teapot_loghost { tcp("192.168.10.25" port(30304)); };
log { source(s_teapot_port); destination(teapot_loghost); };


Let me know if any other info can be useful. Thanks for any help!

Grav
