I have a service which queries a database every second and print out results to console. When I look at journalctl I get a couple hundred lines that all have the same timestamp, and then the next couple hundred all have the same timestamp again just about 5m ahead of the previous. So I would have a couple hundred lines at 12:00:00pm, then the next block of couple hundred would be 12:04:58 and so on and so forth. Could anyone explain the reasoning for this?

Most likely the service doesn't flush its output so it's buffered. The buffer flushes when full.– Robert LongsonCommented Dec 2, 2022 at 18:17
