Cheers, Eric

            That's an interesting problem. I would be tempted to wrap
            one of those three (custom appender, filter, or
            turbo-filter) around a Metrics object:<br>

            The Connector is Amazon's code, and it does not throw any
            exceptions that our code can catch, rather it just reports a
            lot of errors in the log stream. This is clearly an insane
            situation that we need to catch, so I was thinking of

            minute over some threshold.<br>
            <br>
            Does this seem like the right way to address this problem?
            Have other people used similar techniques, or other
            techniques to sanity check the log stream?<br>
