Django Logger vs Logging Middleware

[Z S]

Hi,

I want to log every request sent to Django.

There are some posts online about logging middleware. The Django documentation talks about logger configuration and it seems that I can set it up to log everything without writing middleware.

• Can I log everything without middleware? 
• What can middleware give me that a well-tuned Django logging config cannot?
• Can I log INFO level messages, with DEBUG = False and no middleware?
• How much extra load does logging everything add to my app?

Thanks!
