Here is a list of some possible or desirable features, and the extent to which we have implemented them or plan to.
| Feature | Plan | Implemented |
|---|---|---|
| Large file handling | Core issue: handling big logfiles, seen up to 10GB/file. | Delayed scan, delayed inflate of compressed files, separate prescan of first entry, partitioning (*LogPart* level). Some tuning on optimal partition sizes is needed. |
| Shallow learning curve | Need design for advanced commands. No user experience testing so far. | Using less/vi-like commands should be farily intuitive for navigation. |
| Search | No design for search/select features yet. Considering some filter mechanism, but afraid a view-on-a-view may make it very complex or unacceptably slow. | (Nothing.) |
