This should print the entire stream configuration of the Converter logs, 
no ?  Earlier it would print "stream0" or "stream1" which is less 
expressive IMO

I don't have a opinion on this right now, but there might be a better 
option.

Seconded. If all agrees...

This is removed because streams_ is not a std::vector anymore (see the 
change above in the patch). streams_ is now a std::map, for which 
reserve() is non-existent (rather not makes sense).
