    Plain text is slow and cumbersome for large amounts of logs. It would of had a decent performance penalty for little value add.

    If you like text you can pipe journalctl

      But if journalctl is slow, piping is not helping.

      We have only one week of very sparse logs in it, yet it takes several seconds… greping tens of gigabytes of logs can be sometimes faster. That is insane.
