How many messages does the syslog on WSLOGGER send out in bursts?  The
zhm needs to keep messages in an internal queue until they are
acknowledged; therefore the maximum queue length determines the ultimate
size of zhm.

When I send individual messages through my zhm, it doesn't increase in
size; when I ram 15 messages through in rapid-fire, and repeat, the size
increases a bit the first time (as would be expected when the queue
grows), but not on successive runs.

As Ken suggested, I think this is just a property of the workload of
that zhm.
