The documentation was wrong about that which has been corrected. The proper 
file contents should be

<h1>You successfully submitted a message</h1>
<a href="?cmd=Back">Back</a> to the logbook<p>
<a href="?cmd=New">Enter</a> another message

This way one only needs one file for all logbooks.

icon5.gif   Problem with large entry size, posted by Dimitrios Tsirigkas on Mon Oct 16 16:20:06 2006 
Hi Stefan,

I have posted an entry of approximately a thousand lines (ten thousand words). Posting it took some time, which is logical to a certain degree. However, whenever a user asks for "Full" view of the logbook, the page takes around two minutes to load and the CPU usage on the elog server goes to beyond 90% for all this time. Is this to be expected for an entry of that size or is there something going wrong here?

Thanks,
Dimitris

The problem lies in the ELCode parsing. When you post an entry in ELCode form, the elogd server has to parse every word to see if it's any of the ELcode tags. This is right now implemented in a kind of poor way, such that it takes very long for long entries. I will work to optimize that. In the meantime, it will help if you post such long entries just in "plain" form.
