For example, you can split the logs up based on Rails app, mongrel process, or even by app server if you&rsquo;re using remote syslog. <p>[...] <p>...and now we&rsquo;re using SysLog we can use Eric&rsquo;s other tool, <a href="http://rubyforge.org/frs/shownotes.php?group_id=1513&amp;release_id=11750">ProductionLogAnalyzer</a>, to identify performance bottleknecks of our application.
