Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-437:
------------------------------------
Also, in your system properties you have start heap size and max heap size = 2
GB. I don't know the characteristics of your application, but this does not
seem very much...
(EDIT) I just saw that you tried increasing start/max (?) heap size and this
solved the swapping problem. Good to hear that.

> Key: LOG4J2-437
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-437
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Appenders
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta9
> Environment: JDK : 1.6.0_18
> APP Server : Jboss 5.1.0_GA
> Task : Migrate from Log4J_1.2 to Log4J2
> OS : Linux 5 (Virtual Machine)
> Reporter: Giri Kosuru
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: Performance

> Environment Details
> ================
> JDK : 1.6.0_18
> APP Server : Jboss 5.1.0_GA
> Task : Migrate from Log4J_1.2 to Log4J2
> OS : Linux 5 (Virtual Machine)
> We are trying to upgrade from Log4J 1.2 to Log4J2 due to performance reasons.
> In log4j1.2, we saw thread BLOCKING and decided to go to LOG4J2. Before
> migration, we tested to evaluate and we found performance improvement with
> LOG4J2.
> After full migration, when application moved to performance testing
> environment, we started seeing trouble with Log4j2. We saw at least 40 TPS
> down, with increased response times; in performance. When diagnosed, found
> that there is increased SWAPPING on linux and with increased IO waits (Some
> times 15 %).
> For the same given environment and load test; application with LOG4J_1.2 code
> , does not have any SWAPPING and IO waits. In addition we have BAD
> performance with LOG4J2.
> Can anyone give us pointers on what we are doing wrong ? Or there are some
> performance issues with LOG4J2 ?? We are stuck in between releases and if
> there is no help coming, we may just abandon LOG4J2. So Please I request you
> to look seriously and give us some pointers.
> Following is the configuration for log4j2.
