------------------------------------
[~daryn]
Can't I achieve the same by configuring an AsyncAppender as below :
Do you see any downside in doing this ?
{code}
<appender class="org.apache.log4j.AsyncAppender" name="ASYNC_HDFS_AUDIT">
<param name="BufferSize" value="500"/>
<appender-ref ref="HDFS_AUDIT"/>
</appender>
<logger additivity="false"
name="org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem.audit">
<level value="info"/>
<appender-ref ref="ASYNC_HDFS_AUDIT"/>
</logger>
{code}
