I am trying to run multiple openevolve.run calls in parallel, but it is extremely difficult to parse which openevolve logs belong to which of the multiple calls I am running. It would be fantastic if openevolve could take in an optional prefix in the run() function, which would then be used to prefix all of the downstream loggers

    This is a good idea we can add a logger prefix.

    Happy to pick this up — it's been open a while and @codelion's thumbs-up is still the latest word. Plan: add an optional logger_prefix config (plus a --logger-prefix CLI flag), and apply a handler-level logging.Filter in _setup_logging() that rewrites record.name, so every downstream module logger gets the prefix in both file and console output. Will open a PR shortly.
