Quill is an ultra-low-latency asynchronous logging and metrics library for C++17. It is designed for performance-critical applications where logging overhead must be minimal.

Use cases

  • add logging to a low-latency C++ trading application
  • log asynchronously without blocking hot code paths
  • structured logging in C++ with fmt-style formatting
  • collect and expose metrics in a C++ service
  • replace spdlog/glog with a faster logger

When to choose

  • you need extremely low logging latency in C++
  • you want asynchronous background-thread logging
  • you need cross-platform C++ logging with structured output

When to avoid

  • you need a simple logger and don't care about latency
  • your project is not C++17 or newer
  • you need logging integrated into a non-C++ stack
