As per my previous messages on the list, I was having a strange problem in
my test cluster (Hammer 0.94.6, CentOS 6.5) where my monitors were
literally crawling to a halt, preventing them to ever reach quorum and
causing all sort of problems. As it turned out, to my surprise everything
went back to normal as soon as I turned off syslog -- special thanks to
Sean!

The slowdown with syslog on was so severe that logs were being written with
a timestamp that was several minutes (and eventually up to hours) behind
the system clock. The logs from my 4 monitors can be seen in the links
below:

I'm still trying to understand what is going on with my syslog servers but
I was wondering... is this a known/documented issue?

Luckily this was a test cluster but I'm worried I could hit this on a
production cluster any time soon, and I'm wondering how I could detect it
before my support engineers loose their minds.

Thanks,

Sergio
