Subject: nflog performance ...

I am using ulogd2 to log iptables activity.
However, when using pgsql as output plugin ... performance is very
very sluggish. (~130-150 entries per second)

To enhance performance I am trying

modprobe ipt_ULOG nlbufsiz=65535 flushtimeout=1000

but this gives error : ipt_ULOG module not found.


On the same lines, I tried

modprobe ipt_NFLOG nlbufsiz=65535 flushtimeout=1000
It didnt give any error !!!

But still there is no increase in performance.
Are these values effective?

I am also using  --nflog-threshold 50 in iptables rule.

I am setting buffer_size as
netlink_socket_buffer_size=104857600
netlink_socket_buffer_maxsize=1048576000

When running ulog, it gives message of setting buffer size as
21708600. Though it didnt give any message like
"ulogd_inppkt_NFLOG.c:443 We are losing events, increasing buffer size
to xxxxxx"
but again why it is only setting buffer size as 21708600 though I have
set in config as 104857600?
