For single line event sourcetypes, it is most efficient to set SHOULD_LINEMERGE to what value?

    Correct Answer: B

    For single line event sourcetypes in Splunk, it is most efficient to set SHOULD_LINEMERGE to False. This configuration prevents the Splunk platform from combining multiple lines into a single event, which is unnecessary for single line events and can improve performance by reducing the computational overhead involved in processing and merging lines.
