Thanks. That is helpful but it still doesn’t answer the question I was asking, although it does provide good documentation on what people are recommending for how to configure applications for the cloud.
Testing at Log4j has shown that writing to stdout is magnitudes slower than logging to a file, even when stdout is redirected to a file. What I am wondering, and still haven’t found an answer to, is whether this performance degradation is present when a Java app is running in a docker container and logs to stdout.
