How are people looking at this now?

It's clear that in my situation it's causing issues...

I was thinking to maybe use fail2ban to block the users to make to  
many log entries with user_deny.  But after looking at fail2ban it  
needs a hostname in the logline.  Which the logged messages doesn't  
have. Although I could say the username is the hostname I think.

An other option would be to coble something together with  
logstash/statsd and graphite I think...

Any other easier solution anybody can think of?

Thanks,
