Allow variable log rate

Swiddis opened this issue · comments

For some applications, it may be desirable to have the rate of generated logs be variable. The rate could be configured to roam between a range of logs per second, to insert bursts, or perhaps other distributions.

A related idea is the concept of an Arrival Process in Queueing Theory, which accommodates multiple distributions for the arrival rate (most popular to my knowledge being a Poisson distribution).
