Sean Kamath commented on TS-1521: --------------------------------- It would also be very beneficial when using a remote logging host to compress the stream to the other host. In fact, this would be prefereable to on-disk only compression, since sending the cluster logs to an aggregator can offload the disk writes. > Enable compression for binary log format > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: TS-1521 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-1521 > Project: Traffic Server > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Logging > Environment: RHEL 6+ > Reporter: Lans Carstensen > > As noted by in a discussion on #traffic-server, gzip can result in 90%+ > compression on the binary access logs. By adding a reasonable streaming > compression algorithm to the binary format you could significantly reduce > logging-related IOPS. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
