How to Disable Microseconds Precision (for a Performance Boost)
2.11
The use_microseconds option was introduced in MonologBundle 2.11.
Setting the parameter use_microseconds to false forces the logger to reduce
the precision in the datetime field of the log messages from microsecond to second,
avoiding a call to the microtime(true) function and the subsequent parsing.
Disabling the use of microseconds can provide a small performance gain speeding up the
log generation. This is recommended for systems that generate a large number of log events.
