Yes, scripts is the big Problem. Rsyslog actually had high-precision timestamps right from the beginning, but nobody ever used them. So I decided to change the default ;) On the scripts: I am thinking about a simple converter that takes high precision log files and converts them to old-style low precision ones. Such a converter could be run before the actual script. Do you (or someone else) think this is useful and worth the effort?
