+The TCLogParser processes the access log independently for each thread.
+The SharedTCLogParser and OrderPreservingLogParser share access to the file, 
+i.e. each thread gets the next entry in the log.
+</p>
+<p>
+The SessionFilter is intended to handle Cookies across threads. 
+It does not filter out any entries, but modifies the cookie manager so that 
the cookies for a given IP are
+processed by a single thread at a time. If two threads try to process samples 
from the same client IP address,
+then one will be forced to wait until the other has completed.
+</p>
+<p>
+The LogFilter is intended to allow access log entries to be filtered by 
filename and regex,
+as well as allowing for the replacement of file extensions. However, it is not 
currently possible
+to configure this via the GUI, so it cannot really be used.
