    Attachment: jmh-based-perf-tests.zip

(Attached jmh-based-perf-tests.zip)

It is notoriously hard to write reliable performance tests in Java. Even 
performance experts (and I don't count myself as an expert) frequenty get this 
wrong and end up measuring the wrong thing.

Oracle developed a microbenchmark test harness 
([JMH|http://openjdk.java.net/projects/code-tools/jmh/]) for perf testing 
components that go into the JDK. It may be worthwhile spending some time 
getting to know this framework. The 
[samples|http://hg.openjdk.java.net/code-tools/jmh/file/tip/jmh-samples/src/main/java/org/openjdk/jmh/samples/]
 explain about some of the pitfalls of Java performance testing and how to use 
JMH to avoid them. They also show how easy it is to write a JMH benchmark, 
often it is just one line of code.

The attached project jmh-based-perf-tests.zip contains JMH benchmarks for plain 
log4j-1.2, plain log4j2, and the "CustomLogger" wrappers. Build with "mvn clean 
install", and then run the microbenchmark tests with 
{code}
java -jar target\microbenchmarks.jar -f 3 -wi 5 -i 10 -t 4
{code}
(3 forks, 5 warmup iterations each, 10 iterations each, using 4 threads)
See {{java -jar target\microbenchmarks.jar -h}} for more options.

Here are the results on my laptop, sorted best first (higher throughput is 
better, lower latency is better).

I hope this puts your performance concerns at ease.

> I have been looking at the Custom/Extended logger discussions. But none of 
> them seems to fulfil what i am looking for.
> 1) I want custom methods as below:
> {code}
>     private static CustomLogger logger = 
> CustomLogger.getLogger(AppAsyncMain.class);
>    
>     logger.info( transaction_id, app_name + event_name +
>                                       "inside the loop" + "inside the loop of 
> the sample app" +
>                                       "success" + "looped in" + "loop_count" +
>                                       String.valueOf(i));

>       log:
> {code}
> 2014-06-30 16:09:28,268 log_level="INFO" thread_name="main" 
> class_name="com.custom.samplelog4j.AppAsyncMain" 
> transaction_id="79ea1071-9565-405a-aa18-75d271694bf2" 
> event_id="dd5c69c0-4400-41fd-8a2e-5d538d8e8c9b" app="Sample Logging SDK App" 
> event_name="Sample Event" action="start of sample app" desc="start of api" 
> result="success" reason="start" token="abcdefg" alias="a...@gmail.com" 
> {code}
>       
> 2) I want to show warning in existing logger methods so the teams using the 
> custom logger doesn't use these methods other than for testing:
> {code}
>    logger.info("start of statement");
> {code}
>    
>    log:
> {code}
>    2014-06-30 16:12:31,065 log_level="INFO" thread_name="main" 
> class_name="com.custom.samplelog4j2.AppAsyncMain" start of statement  
> customlogger_warning="method not recommended for production use" 
> {code}
>    
> 3) Custom validations for the fields:
> {code}
>       private static String validateFields(String app_name, String event_name,
>                       String action, String desc, Result result, String 
> reason) {
>               String validateStatus = "";
>               if (!ValidateAppName(app_name)) {
>                       validateStatus = "app_name";
>               } else if (!ValidateEventName(event_name)) {
>                       validateStatus = "event_name";
>               } else if (!ValidateAction(action)) {
>                       validateStatus = "action";
>               } else if (!ValidateDesc(desc)) {
>                       validateStatus = "desc";
>               } else if (!ValidateReason(result, reason)) {
>                       validateStatus = "reason";
>               }
>               return validateStatus;
>       }
> {code}
> Options tried:
> 1.
> * extended ExtendedLoggerWrapper
> * created the map of the Custom logger
> * This option was failing because of "writing to a closed appender"
> * Attached is the code "CustomLogger.java"
>    
> 2. Modified the AbstractLogger in Trunk and added the below methods:
> {code}
>       @Override
>     public void info(final String message) {
>     String updtMessage = message + " amexlogger_error=\"Incorrect method 
> used\"";
>         logIfEnabled(FQCN, Level.INFO, null, updtMessage, (Throwable) null);
>     }
>  public void info(final String transactionId, final String app_name, final 
> String event_name, final String action, final String desc, final String 
> result, final String reason, final String... moreFields) { 
>        String message = "transaction_id=" + transactionId + " " + "app_name=" 
> + app_name + " " + "event_name=" + event_name + " " + "action=" + action;
>  
>         logIfEnabled(FQCN, Level.INFO, null, message, (Throwable) null);
>     }
> {code}
>       I don't want to modify the methods inside the log4j-api. 
>       
> Please help me with the correct approach on how to use log4j2 for this 
> usecase.
> Thanks
