Logging to text files is idiotic. Let me show you, how to do it right. Results: -very simple and problem-free multithreaded logging -minimal cpu load runtime -small log files -faster compile times (especially if you are using retarded shit for formatting) Use a fucking enum for messages tight binary blobs for data instead of string fuckery. Log per thread into separate log buffers. Have a fixed small time slot per frame per thread to dump the log per thread using ASIO / DMA to a per thread log file or send them thru network) If logging is not time critical, send to network on exit/crash using a standalone watchdog app or SEH or something. On exit/crash, maybe also compress the log files. Make small standalone app that convert your per thread compressed binary logs into a single txt. You can even write a small log reader with more filtering options, maybe 1 day of work tops.
