Yes, what I really meant was per repository. I sort of assumed that loggers belonging to the same "category" (e.g. "org.apache") would have their own counter because having a JVM-wide lock like that would be pretty unfortunate. Has any of log4j been analyzed for thread contention? I have used this before and it works okay: http://freshmeat.net/projects/contentionprofiler/ Java 5 also has some built in tools: http://javalobby.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=16394 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
