Doh! - It's only just occurred to me that we could use the logging facility to log the output from controllers and filters and analyse the results 'off-line' so to speak. Should be trivial to import the results into a spreadsheet and plot graphs - it'll only take a little bit of effort to set up the logging details - I'll try this when I get a chance.
