What is xLogger
xLogger is an apache log file analyser. It's extremely fast because
it relies on extensive thread detachment to process loose taks. It
parses a 4GB log file in about 140 seconds on a 2.1GHz PowerPC G5
or a 3.6GHz Intel Pentium 4 running Tiger. Intel benchmarks were
provided by a developer with access to a DRP.
xLogger's architecture is based on a core ANSI-C parser library
called the xloggerparselib and on a high level Cocoa frontend to
present the results and apply filtering. Because the core is
cross-platform, frontends can be designed to run on any system so
long as they know how to access the core. The API for the core is
private, for now.
When will it be
ready to test?
xLogger is on continuous development. It is one of my many pet
projects. You can download the nightly builds, which are beta by
nature. Though i can't guarantee it will not crash, i can guarantee
there are no write attempts on your log files, so it will not,
under any circumstances, corrupt any files you feed it.
