Does this have to be centralized in realtime? I gather up the logs from
a bunch of web servers with rsync over ssh after the application does
its own log rollover. The log files end up with timestamped names so it
doesn't matter if the rsync misses a day or two. That way you've got
the whole file system as a queue...
