The latest patchset now addresses this by wrapping handle(), rather than the error/warning/info/etc methods.

I've also added a tunable to limit the backlog size. When this queue fills, logging becomes semi-synchronous until it is no longer full. One would set a limit if they want to restrict memory growth. Right now, this defaults to unlimited, but it might make sense to put a reasonable default such as 4,000 messages?
