[OpenSIPS-Users] Opensips logging issue?

Hi Adelson,

it is classic problem - if you have to much debugging (like debug=4) , 
opensips will become slow due to syslog interaction (more or less syslog 
will drag opensips down).

For this reason I do not recommend to run in a production env with 
debug>=4 level.

Also check your syslog conf - you may gain some speed up if you set 
async writing into log file (see the ~ or - prefix to the log file in 
syslog.conf). Also man page for syslog will explain you better this ;)

Regards,
Bogdan
