Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-1296:
-------------------------------------

 How so? This is the final step that hooks all the GC-free components together. 
If we cannot reuse Messages then we cannot provide a GC-free execution path 
through Log4j and the whole epic goes out the window. It is not as difficult as 
it sounds. 

> Add MessageFactory that reuses a cached Message instance

> As discussed in LOG4J2-1270, all current MessageFactory implementations 
> create new temporary Message objects. A GC-free configuration needs a 
> different MessageFactory that reuses Message instances.
> When Messages are being reused, async logging components need to be aware of 
> this and ensure the Message _content_  (rather than the Message instance 
> itself) is passed to the background thread. However, Messages that are not 
> reusable should be passed to the background thread unchanged.
