A log message collection system selects a configured host and fetches a log message. The log message collection system examines the fetched message to identify one or more DLLs necessary to translating the log message and determines whether the necessary DLL(s) have been loaded into a cache. If so, the log message is translated. If the DLLs are not in the cache, the log message collection system fetches from the log message host only the DLLs necessary to translate that fetched message. After the message is translated, the log message collection system fetches the next log message, identifies the necessary DLLs for that log message, and fetches the DLLs necessary to translate that message.
