rsyslog 7.3.5 (v7-devel) released

Version 7.3.5 is an update to the development branch. It contains new features: now, ommysql supports batching, which results in overall better system performance. Also, omudpspoof has been enhanced to support fragmentation for large messages. Omudpspoof now also supports the native v7 config format. Lastly, the script optimizer has been enhanced and detects and considerably optimizes some frequently-used constructs (like if $syslogfacility-text == “kernel” and such). Of course, there are also a couple of bug fixes, the most important one addresses a potential segfault that can happen in imuxock.

All users of the 7.3 branch are advised to update to this version.
