So the script has two parts which are reading the log file and searching for the string in a list of strings. This list can be big with a target of around 20000 strings.</p> <p><strong>Note:</strong> This post may seem trivial for real Python developers but as I did not manage to find any documentation on this here is this blog post.</p>
