Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-10241:
-----------------------------------------

bq. my inclination would be to say that the debug log should be a superset of 
the normal info log

I think that makes sense. Implementation-wise we would have the following 
options to support that (afaik):
# Comment-out the {{ASYNCDEBUGLOG}} appender reference on the root-logger, and 
let operators uncomment if they want to enable {{debug.log}} with logs from all 
levels.
# Conditionally add the {{ASYNCDEBUGLOG}} appender to the root-logger based on 
a configuration property.
** This is not natively supported by logback though, we would need to add the 
[janino|http://logback.qos.ch/setup.html#janino] dependency.
# Always have the {{ASYNCDEBUGLOG}} appender enabled on the root-logger, so 
{{INFO}} messages are always duplicated on both {{system.log}} and 
{{debug.log}}.

If [~aweisberg] doesn't have any other suggestion, or objection, I think 1 is 
the best approach.

> Keep a separate production debug log for troubleshooting
