-------------------------------------
Summary: Refactor LogWriter to use SizeAndTimeBasedRollingPolicy
Key: SLING-7676
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7676
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Commons
Affects Versions: Commons Log 5.1.6
Reporter: Julian Sedding
As discussed in SLING-7660 and LOGBACK-266, the currently used
{{FixedWindowRollingPolicy}} can be expensive when a lot of old files should be
retained. This is because all files need to be renamed during log-file
rotation, which can be expensive on some file systems.
The recommendation is to use {{SizeAndTimeBasedRollingPolicy}} instead, which
allows limiting the size of individual log files by adding a date field and a
counter to each log-file's name.
