Syslog duplicate messages

I've heard that syslog in Solaris10 doesn't repeat duplicate messages and displays "last message repeated n times."

Is there a way to increase the time interval, so that more messages are recognized as duplicates?

thanks.

PERROR(2)							System Calls Manual							 PERROR(2)

NAME
perror, syslog - system error messages SYNOPSIS
#include <u.h> #include <libc.h> void perror(char *s) void syslog(int cons, char *logname, char *fmt, ...) DESCRIPTION
Perror produces a short error message on the standard error file describing the last error encountered during a call to the system. First the argument string s is printed, then a colon, then the message and a newline. If s is 0, only the error message and newline are printed. Syslog logs messages in the file named by logname in the directory /sys/log; the file must already exist and should be append-only. Log- name must contain no slashes. The message is a line with several fields: the name of the machine writing the message; the date and time; the message specified by the print(2) format fmt and any following arguments; and a final newline. If cons is set or the log file cannot be opened, the message is also printed on the system console. Syslog can be used safely in multi-threaded programs. SOURCE
