I don't agree with that part. When looking at sections of log files that
people post on help forums, I've often wished people had shared
milliseconds, and I've never wished they had truncated them off.
If two messages are separated by 0.950 seconds, it can have entirely
different implications than if they are separated by 0.002 seconds.
What is the cost of using %m, other than 4 (rather compressible) bytes per
log entry?
Cheers,
Jeff
