Log-Syslog-Fast version 0.67

This module sends syslog messages over a network socket. It works like Sys::Syslog in setlogsock's 'udp', 'tcp', or 'unix' modes, but without the significant CPU overhead of that module when used for high-volume logging. Use of this specialized module is only recommended if 1) you must use network syslog as a messaging transport but 2) need to minimize the time spent in the logger.

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

perl Makefile.PL make make test make install
