Syslog-ng?

[Rafał Radecki]

Hi all.

I am currently deploying an evnironment with nginx webservers. I would like
to store logs centrally with syslog-ng. I would like to make it as
efficient as it can be, I've found two "howtos":

http://grokbase.com/t/centos/centos/113ryagfqe/remote-logging-nginx-or-other-non-syslog-enabled-stuff
(Ilyas's
responses)
which use fifos.

What do you think about using fifos? Is it more efficient than logging
to/through a file? What about sockets? Are there any other alternatives?
What are your experiences?

Best regards,
Rafal.
