"""
This module contains classes which help you work with queues. A typical
application is when you want to log from performance-critical threads, but
where the handlers you want to use are slow (for example,
:class:`~logging.handlers.SMTPHandler`). In that case, you can create a queue,
pass it to a :class:`QueueHandler` instance and use that instance with your
loggers. Elsewhere, you can instantiate a :class:`QueueListener` with the same
queue and some slow handlers, and call :meth:`~QueueListener.start` on it.
This will start monitoring the queue on a separate thread and call all the
configured handlers *on that thread*, so that your logging thread is not held
up by the slow handlers.

Note that as well as in-process queues, you can use these classes with queues
from the :mod:`multiprocessing` module.

**N.B.** This is part of the standard library since Python 3.2, so the
version here is for use with earlier Python versions.
