worse yet, nodes may be sending more than one line at a time,
circumventing the aggregator. if they do it fast enough it becomes a
real mess and there's no amount of lookback one can do to ensure this
isn't happening :)
i'm routinely seeing syslog brought to its knees around here by a
particular cluster management software which decides to log two lines
instead of just one for a particular often-failing operation, so
instead of 'message repeated X times' (for some very large X) we get
'disk full'...
