Ok, there's clearly been some misunderstanding here. My real point was,
why do you need this threading at all?

I know that is not a technical argument so let me do the following:
implement log buffering, implement a shared memory backend and do a
performance comparison of the two approaches on my crappy netbook
(which will be unfair but I don't currently have access to a
multi-core multi-process machine).
Thanks!

Can you explain why you did this? I admittedly don't know much about
logging but my gut instinct is that it's overengineering. Unless there's a
good reason that I didn't foresee, I'd much rather just keep things like
logging simple and stupid.
