Hi, I sometimes see this issue where I want to switch logs to DEBUG, but due to the large number of messages the JVM will crash on OutOfMemory which turns out to be due to the accumulation of logging events. Most logging frameworks have the ability to drop messages beyond a certain number and so do Akka unbounded mailboxes.
Is there a way to achieve this with Akka logging as well? The behavior of the non blocking unbounded mailbox is what I have in mind (logging frameworks usually add a warning of some kind telling you that messages are being dropped, but I can manage without this for now). Alternatively, I could just using my logger directly. It's asynchronous anyway. The only issue with that is that I find the extra MDC data of actor path very useful when looking at piles of DEBUG logs. It makes zeroing in on a single transaction very simple. -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
