Performance issues in Windows Server 2008 #39

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install on 2k8 
2. Observe performance when size goes above 50 megabytes

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Evtsys uses the EvtQuery API call in 2008, which means that it searches the 
entire log file every five seconds based on the query.  This causes massive 
performance problems.  A better solution is to use the EvtSubscribe API call to 
be notified about new events as they come in.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest from SVN on Windows Server 2008 R2.

Please provide any additional information below.
Here's the API doc for EvtSubscribe:

This has been completed and is currently committed to the trunk. I have not 
tagged a release yet since I plan on adding some additional features to it.

The trunk is stable and you are free to build from it or request a build if 
you'd like to try it.

This issue has been addressed, but no official release has been
produced as of yet. You would need to build from the trunk to get the
fix.
