Summary

This is a python module that provides a way to run a fast logger. Peregrine Falcons are the fastest animals alive (according to Google). They go that fast by having as minimal drag as possible.

See Quick Start for information on using scripts.
See xplat-utils submodule for information on the submodule.

Sample code

see sample.py for a full example

from falcon_logger import FalconLogger

Sample

Use doit script to run the logger and compare against other loggers.

To run the FalconLogger:

./doit falcon
./doit falcon --numlines=100000

To run the others loggers:

./doit stdout  # no file, just stdout
./doit normal  # use the python logger
./doit rsyslog # use the rsyslog python module

Comparing Times

The overall time is very dependent on which OS you use and the speed of your computer

on MSYS2 for 100,000 lines:
stdout: total time: 3170.0 ms
falcon: total time: 3623.9 ms
normal: total time: 5722.8 ms
rsyslog fails with an exception
