  • Subject changed from Add support to split eve json output to dedicated worker thread files similiar to pcap to eve: per thread output files

To avoid contention on the single output structure (+lock) when having many worker threads, add a mode where we have a eve.json per thread.

Modern tools like logstash/filebeat support tracking & processing multiple files w/o issue.

Hi, Jeff.

My time is stretched both at work and at home, at the moment, so please do if you want to. This is a feature that I think would be awesome to have, performance wise :)
