Outdated benchmarks #6

Closed ArekPiekarz closed 6 years ago

ArekPiekarz commented 6 years ago

README contains comparisons with other logging libraries without stating their versions - except for Boost 1.55, which came out 5 years ago in 2013. I presume other libraries in your tests are also as outdated as Boost.Log.

Can you update the benchmarks to reflect the current performance of the logging systems?

Sorry for not including the information in the README.md (which has been updated in response to this issue), but I believe that Boost may be the only outdated system. Here's a summary of the software versions we benchmarked against.

Given the relatively stable performance trend of traditional logging systems, it's unlikely that a newer version of Boost would see significantly better performance, so we'll leave that comparison at 1.55.
