I'm not running multicast.
As they're all pretty simple to test, it may be worthwhile to give
them a shot just to rule things out.
unfortunantly the load is not high enough right now to see a real
difference (it's only doing ~1400 logs/sec) I'll catch it at a higher load
point to see if these make any difference.
