> When I use a fast file appender it seems to start from the beginning of the 
> file every time, overwriting previous entries.  What I mean is that if the 
> program starts, then I start again.  The previous entries at the very 
> beginning of the file are overwritten.
> It's possible that the fact that the entries span multiple lines might make 
> it worse.  Either way it always seems to start at the beginning of the file, 
> instead of at the end (like log4j 1.2.x did).
> Maybe I need to try the regular file appender instead of the fast one and see 
> if the same behavior occurs.
> I'm not at my workstation so I can't recreate it at the moment, but if you 
> have trouble recreating it let me know.
