Thats no big deal; the big deal is if you run a lossy network your risk
of losing logentries is higher with larger packets. I've not done more

of large volumes of small UDP packets or smaller volume of larger UDP
packets are.

Chalk one up for after exams.

Just doing it every 30 seconds or so rather than on every write.
