1. A method comprising: receiving a logging stream of a data event from a process being executed, wherein the logging stream of the data event is unformatted and comprises one or more formatting instructions and one or more arguments associated with the one or more formatting instructions to be recorded to a system log; analyzing the logging stream of the data event to determine a formatting instruction of the one or more formatting instructions; analyzing the logging stream of the data event to determine a first argument of the one or more arguments, wherein the first argument is associated with the formatting instruction; serializing, by a processing device, the formatting instruction and the first argument into a sequence of bits; recording the sequence of bits in a buffer without causing the logging stream of the data event to be formatted; and in response to identifying a crash event: copying the sequence of bits associated with the formatting instruction and the first argument from the buffer to a persistent storage; and deserializing the sequence of bits to restore the first argument by parsing the sequence of bits to identify the formatting instruction by identifying a character indicative of the formatting instruction and to identify the first argument and formatting the first argument into a formatted first argument according to the formatting instruction.
