suggestions on a php log file analyzer?

You'll find one for sure at
log files tend to be very large, and the typical analysis that one does on them tends to be computationally intensive.
whilst you *can* use php for these tasks, using an interpreted language for such intensive applications is hardly optimal. I would look for a compiled alternative; or, I would write my own logger to capture data in an appropriately related structure (since I know what my output needs are) and take some of the computational load off that way.
