Django Logger vs Logging Middleware

Question

I want to log every request sent to Django.

There are some posts online about logging middleware. The Django documentation talks about logger configuration and it seems that I can set it up to log everything without writing middleware.

Can I log everything without middleware?
What can middleware give me that a well-tuned Django logging config cannot?
Can I log INFO level messages, with DEBUG = False and no middleware?
How much extra load does logging everything add to my app?

if want to log every request, in that case, you should use Logging in middleware https://djangosnippets.org/snippets/428/
