Bug Description

The perl package 5.10.0-11.1ubuntu2 (current version for intrepid) ships with Sys::Syslog 0.22. This version has a problem that it does a select(2) way too often with a timeout of 0.25 seconds. In effect it is sleeping for the 0.25 seconds before each message is sent to syslogd:-( (at least with the `right' transport selected:-()

My fcgi code (with currently a lot of debug output to syslogd) changed it's response time from <0.1 seconds to 5-6 seconds when I upgraded to 8.10:-(

The cpan module Sys::Syslog 0.27 fixes that problem.

Thanks,
-- Marco
