In the 5.2 update we are switching from the python based dispatcher (audit 
1.4.1 era) to an improved C based multi-threaded dispatcher (roughly current 
with 1.6.8's). I will probably be backporting the same dispatcher to RHEL4.7.

There very well could be other 3rd party dispatchers out there, but I don't 
know where you would find them and I have not tested them. Also, the 
dispatcher needs SE Linux policy updates since auditd_t is a confined domain. 
So, a third party dispatcher has that hurdle to jump over, too.
