At that speed I'm mostly concerned about entryCSN values and MMR conflict
resolution.
Note that CSNs already support finer than microsecond resolution.
But since delta-syncrepl relies on accesslog, that's more of a concern.
As for syslog - currently, with my experimental syslog() code, my best result
still takes 60% longer when running with -s256 (STATS loglevel) vs -s0. If I
comment out the send() on the /dev/log socket to rsyslogd, and leave all the
message formatting code intact, it's only 10% slower. So most of the slowdown
is in the actual send() syscall.
(Using the original code is around 2.5x slower for -s256 than -s0)
